ive been looking at some pre-runner type front bars, but i think the fabtechs is too small, the n-fab is too expensive....and daystar is deffiantly too expensive.

so im looking at custom fabing one up, is custom fab. expensive?? my brother said it isnt really and he has a custom roof rack and front bumper on his defender 90.

custom fab work is usually alot more then the cosat of buying one new. plus u have to have it powder coated or painted besides the cost of making it.

true, but the tubing isnt that expensive.

what ill do is get the measurements and blueprints for it
(i am a mechanical drafter and have access to autoCAD and autoDESK 2006 which is what the best architects use and its lik a $5000 program)

then go to these guys down the road.
