If you were to scroll down on that second profile you would see it got braced.

i didnt scroll down anymore cause i didnt think it would get better and i felt uneasy about the setup .. and to me still that isnt enough.... i may be wrong of course im just stating my opinion..... closer to where the bars all cross eachother it seems to me there shoudl be another bar connecting and tieing it all in back to the axle for added support. dont get me wrong it loks badass and if it works well thats awesome and very cool and i dont have much knwoledge about these setups i am simply asking and trying to get more knowledge out of it.
ok yea the first one deffinetally needs another bar goin to the bag mount the intire rear load of that truck is be'n held by one bar and i'll just about promise that it will bend. and if what happens when the guy lefting the rock breaks his arms, the other 5 guys really dont matter then. and even if it is a trailer queen thats no excuse for it be'n unsafe. make it work befor make'n it pretty
yea now that i see the rear half of hte 2nd one its hella strong
I think the first one looks ok, if you follow the bars around it all ties into the notch and another crossmember. It only looks like a few inches of single pipe holding the top bag bracket, I think its fine.
The second picture looks like pretty good work, but I sure as hell would'nt like my links being held on by one link tab.
Its probably just a work in progress.
Ive seen alot worse, you never know who your driving next to.
im so glad we have 865497659843675896432790845392 professional fucking fabricators on this effin site.

actually it looks to be the same. Just one bar was added across the axle to join them 2 floating 4link mounts. And the tabs for the top bars are still pretty weak lookin, only one tab on the side of each one? and the bottom bars are the same way, only one tab per bar under the axle... I still wouldn't trust them "floating" bar mounts on the top, they need a lil bit more support then that bar that's about 7 inches away, it's sure to bend unless it's solid stock...
wow (nut)um have some anger problems do we? u dont have to be a profissional fabricator to think something looks unsafe.
