I paid $20 for the aluminum stock, and $60 for the U-bolts, so I didn't really save any money doing it this way, but I'm not worried about how strong it is, thats for sure.
Driving it the past couple days I had a new sqeak or high pitch sound in the driveline. Today I jacked it up, loosened the bolts on the hanger bearing and retightened in case there was some added pressure on the U joints from the driveline angle change. And since I was already under there I added a few squirts of grease to the U joints.
Took it to New Ulm where they are starting a regular Saturday night cruise thing and the noise was gone. Rode great but I gotta get the alignment done.
Here's a few pics from the cruise...
