We just got a new JD2 tubing bender in...We have a few exo's to do on some wags but after that anyone that wants to use it or needs helping bending a cage/sliders let me know. I'd be more than glad to help out anyone willing to take a trip into Saint Aug for some tub bending 101..

Speaking of bent metal I did some hellashis carnage to the side of my rig tonight. Apparently logs 3 feet off the ground tend to disagree with you when go to drive over them....ahh well.

As for Jer I've been some putting time in on his rig lately just trying to keep it running. I gave him EVERYTHING to spring it over including a highsteer set up. So he's go no excuses....I'll egg him on some more, no worries.
