CUSTOM BAR WORK to protect your 4WD on the TRACKS! 

It’s a good point you make at the end Timmy, the situations you’re talking about can be frustrating but perspective is definitely something to keep in mind when it’s not going as smooth as you’d hoped

I have no intentions of ever making barwork for my car 😂 but I watched the whole thing, was a great video Timmy! love your work, keep the videos coming ✌🏽

Timmy, you are the real deal. Great stuff!

Superb quality mate. Hats off to you 👍 love seeing a fellow Tasmanians Content

Great video. Adding to what you said @ the end. I am using a donor GU rail in my build & many of the factory welds are rather "ordinary" & some are down right shite. & I have found the same issue with just about every mass manufactured chassis rail that was welded manually by a human. On production lines way back even the start of the industrial revolution speed was the focus & as mass manifacturing evolved it become more about speed. Welders & assemblers were pushed & squeezed for speed, something usually has to give when that is the case & usually it is quality that is the 1st thing to suffer. With my GU rail we are bracing & jigging it & fixing all the imperfections with the fit & welds, this rail had never been in an accident. Will do the same with the body, doing it in such away that everything will still flex & move enough, without cracking but will be stronger, in places where it was lacking. Also when I made rock sliders for my daily drive all the tube section where I needed a mirror copy I fabricated them @ the same time as well as taking notes. I found I am less likely to forget a detail in the process & tend to get a more mirror identical result. Notching by hand is like anything it takes practice to get them good & you really have to pay attention, some don't have the patience or knack for it. My 1st manually fabricated notches were shite. When you start wasting through the material you either chuck a tanty & give up or you decide to get better. With sliders that don't quite fit, ratchet straps ratchet straps & ratchet straps & sometimes oxy-acetylene if you have it! Just be careful you don't set your straps on fire! :0*

👍🍻🎯. Great content mate.

Gday Timmy, the new bender makes life easy, im stoked you re-done the sliders and they look a heap better the the first set, top job as always mate, Cheers

Great work Buddy. Always fun to watch, and learn.

Sick work Timmy boy 🤙🏼 just got back to the south coast after a quick tassie bomb around , such an epic place .

Great Video. Easy to follow.

Awesome job mate 👍🏽. Great to see someone having a good crack at these. With all them bends and stuff it had me like yeah nah stuff that lol. They turned out great too tho 🤙🏽

Liked your manual technique, I usually draw the profile and use the edge of a 5 " grinding wheel and finish with flap disc

Love it mate. Ur a weapon ❤

Like all your work Tim, looks spot on 👍 how good is the notcher 👏

Good work mate 👍

I'm trying to finish a uni assignment & then you post this. Guess the assignment will have to wait......

wow! fancy ! everyone is gonna want some of this made now ! your onna good roll ! go the Patrol! 🛻😎🤙📹

Awesome video man keep up the amazing work I always love watch and learn 🤙 I might have to hit you up when I make some bar work hey 😂

Saw you yesterday

Hi timmy you are e pro in your shed.....i tatch every video cheers mate

Love your work buddy. Im currently in Tassie for 3 weeks doing some tracks tomorrow morning doing the 1000 dollar track solo. Bloody excited to send the 60 series up

Sweet video man I use to make a fair few sets of sliders a few years ago nothing fancy like these best thing I brought was a band saw. Keep up the good work

Mint video Timmy, they look sweet. Good call at the end about fitment of bar work etc…can be a pain in the arse sometimes but everyone is trying their best for it to be as easy to fit at home as possible…or you could always pay for fitting 😉

if you know your angle - notch it before you bend it then you can rely on the degree of the notcher. just need opposite angle for the notch. hope it helps./

Timmy nice work, can you tell me the specs of the tube that you used? thank you man

1. I didnt see any crocs, anywhere. 2. Thankyou for the PSA about heats affect on metal. Rare to find people who understand that.

Great vid mate. You do some bloody good work for a young fella. Not many of you guys left. Keep it going bud👌

I wonder If it is possible to get barwork like this legal in Norway. I can't remember ever seeing it on any roadgoing car in europe.

Hey mate How did you find doing those chassis plate mounts as opposed to a mount that clamps the chassis?

Bro. You need to make a fab table if rooms tight make it like a ping pong table folds up

Nice work 👍. Good to see you supporting an aussie company , just dont do a cost per bend 😁

Flappy wheel 😂🙌

What are those joint called?

😀👍❤️
