Hollywood1 05-05-2009, 03:52 PM Looking for ideas to make some stands to hold up rigs off there axles. My friend uses the predrilled square tubing that they use for road signs. The tubing will sleeve into eachother and line up the holes for bolts. He use the stands on Ford Rangers so im not sure if they would be strong enough for something like thefront of a K5. Any pics or ideas would be appreciated. Flatline's Up! 05-05-2009, 05:28 PM go to your friends... point toward the sky...

Nice base plate Hollywood1 05-06-2009, 02:13 PM Thanks, just what i was looking for. Firewiz, is that the street sign post material i was takling about? Does it seem strong enough to hold up the front of a full size blazer or Burban? My uncle has some scrap of it i just need to get some more to sleeve it. The fact that the holes line up makes it alot easier to work with. Firewiz 05-06-2009, 05:58 PM Not sure of the intended use but it seems strong. The stuff is used to hold up parked Ag equipment. It seem to hold up my willys truck with no problem. guidolyons 05-07-2009, 07:51 PM :idea: Try the search button. http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=258580&highlight=stands http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=505062&highlight=stands | |
