    Pretty awesome to see how much MIG is on this truck. Darren is the man, humble, well spoken, and a top notch pilot.

    Damn... he fell for the “chromolly up charge”.... more people need to look into the science behind metal... unless you re-heat treat 4130 after welding, it will be brittle next to every weld, and will break when you crash , d.o.m is actually safer for chassis that won’t be heat treated after welding

    Most Rangers are built with 1.75 mild steel DOM tubing and I'd guess a back half like his would be around $800-1000 just for the steel. However since his is chromoly tubing that adds a lot to the price, can't say exactly how much, I've never messed with it.
