13 Inch Bed Bob

So yesterday I bobbed the bed, a whole 13 inches.....
8 hours of hard strenous work- Thanks to my two brothers, I couldn't have done it w/out your help-

A small write up- tools needed

Sawsall- a corded or 28 volt unit

Welder- A mig welder

Plasma Cutter- For cutting frame

Grinder- For grindng welds and finishing body work

8mm, 10mm, 12m, 14mm, 17mm wrenches, ratchet and sockets

Block Sander

Bondo Filler

Four to five metal cutting blades for sawsall

Assorted sanding grits and grinding disk- from coarse to fine

That is a list of all the big things- but you get the point-

On with the pics:
