First Tuber

[Calicrawler23]

I had my dad braze it all up today. I like the results, however i have no clue if it's the right size. Just kind of built how i pictured it being. (I've used my cousins) So if you guys could let me know if it'll look like it will work.

Ive always wanted to build a tuber. Yours looks very good. How do you do it? What all do you need?

Thanks guys now all i need is the MRC to put it on! I'm hoping to get some stainless steel for side panels and mounts. I wasn't going for any particular look, but i just looked at previous ideas and drew up and idea. I loved it then went with it. Then i came across the tuber Ope had from K9. The only idea i took from it was to have the front shock mount tilted out. In the end it came out looking more like a rock racer than a crawler. But i love it. The only thing left to do is add side panels and mounts. Then once i get a MRC i'll bend in the bottom section abit. Thanks guys for the replies. Also you cant really tell by the pics but the bar above where the windshield would be is pointed like a roundish triangle. Looks like a visor for a semi.

I found a bar-b-q grill cut out the grill bars, bent them all up and brazed them together. I used flux covered brass brazing rod from Home Depot.

Can anyone suggest how i should make my link mounts shock mounts etc.? Preferably not nuts. But i was going to have my uncle cut some stainless with his plasma, so how should i have them cut?

Finished, just needs a MRC to bold underneath.

I know the panels look ugly, but they have to be on to be comp. legal.
