Love the shop man. Did you do all the contracting yourself? What did it cost per sqft?

The shop was on the property when i bought the house, it wasnt complete, it needed the cement floor and all the electricity so i had to do that, when i first got there to look at the house i almost forgot about the house when i saw the shop i was all over the shop lol
So i dont really know what it would cost to build it from scratch.

I just put both to the same factory crossmember, but I think yours is lower than mine. You could probably remove that factory tube if you are putting a new one in.

I cut that crossmember out, made a new one that rises up closer to bed..try to keep shocks at 90* or leaned as much as say 10*

If ya gonna do it may as well stand them up correctly, also keep them as far apart as possible for leverage control

Pics are in my build thread amd i used 1 5/8 tube
