The large cross brace is 1 1/2' Diameter 1/4" thick tubing. The smaller stuff, I cannot recall what he got for it. obviously it is not nearly as strong as the larger cross brace, but with all of it together it is plenty strong enough.

Right now, we are doing engine work, along with mounting up his new Engine Driven Compressor. I will have some new pictures up before, Scrapin the Coast next weekend.

Got all the air complete along with the fuel system. Surprising with all the fittings, there was only one leek. Now its time to install the Painless Harness from thehoffmangroup.com and start to do all of the bed work.

Thanks for the compliment. Iv had experience with bending SS tubing, but I have never had to plumb a truck with it. It is coming out good so far. Though Nate the owner/painter is pissed about how the sealer on the frame isn't holding up like it should be. Other then that, its been great so far. We should be firing off the motor soon.
