well i finally got around to makin em. on the pic that has a blue circle is where i had to grind some of the peg down so the bolt would fit. u can see how the corner of the peg is gone. this is a necessary modification u have to do. it makes takin the pegs on and off so much easier

Looks awesome man, alot cheaper then the roll design pegs, and just as good, you should weld a kickup on it, that would be sweet. Nice set up. Do you have a pic of the top of them?

Sry to say bro, but daym...I could weld better than that blind folded,I don't care if it was a Mig or ARC welder..

Sry,just wanted to say..hehe:D

But what did you use? a 6013?6010?waht kinda rod?I am thinkign about doing the same,but I think I'll try a 7024 rod...or have a buddy MIG it up for me...

anyways,post a pic of them babies mounted


P.S. Looks good,and also a TIG Welder is Aluminum,and MIG is Steel,gott it?

my brother did that in less than 1/2 hour and it worked awesome. instead of the welding, he took my old peg, removed the mount, and drilled two holes connecting the stock pegs. then he placed a 4 bolts going trough them alltogether and held very nicely, also looked very trick, but i think propegs works better, just because bigger treads.... until they wear:( lol, looks good man.

Castor there are a lot of less expensive plasma cutters out there, and most will work great if not used constantly. If your interested in a "cheap new one" drop me a pm.
