The tubular stands can be modified to allow extra clearance but you need to be able to section and weld them.
I know Brian and if I knew better at the time. I wouldn't have purchased those but. We got her done. I've taken so many steps back on this build that I might as well be walking backwards. But I'm learning that, that is just part of the journey! Mistakes, burned money, I countless, hours, busted knuckles, cuts and bruises. Critics and naysayers. But there's guys like you and others that make it worth while! Thanks again bro! Name:  image.jpg
