damn, thought these handled the weight pretty good. knew the cheap summitt drag shocks suck. they are tiny tho. i'll try them before dropping 800$ on Qa1's.

don't think tech would let just the main hoop fly? the pile of 1 3/4 pipe isn't to exciting to look at. got most of it cut and roughed in today. should start tacking it together in the morning. will post pics tomorrow.
