he welded it up in a few places he shoulnt have, and grinded a few bolts off that he shouldnt have, so he decided to start new

My Battery Box

So i want to have a thread for my cub and this is the one i was using before the build off then the build off started and i stopped using it so now i'm going to start using it again because the build offs over so heres a picture of me pulling a couple hundred pounds of deer corn. and my german shepherd in the background

Alright guys i started making a wheelie bar i have no clue how to do it so im just winging it lol
so i had some angle iron with holes in it so i welded them together so i now have box tubing with holes in it so i can adjust things.

both of them are going to bolt to the side like this


im going to pull these bolts out and get longer ones

might add a piece along the back but i'm not sure if i will because it might interfere with the wheels or skids


I was overheating the welder too lol

So that's a second cub huh? Neat.
