8.8 swap
Well after a bad day at work i was actually thown a bone today. I stop in at Texas Metals and Recycling after work looking for 3" heavy gage C channel for this axle jig. I went there on the advice of a co worker. Well sitting right there in the scrap bin as i walked inside was several nice, straight 3 foot long cut off sticks of it, and it was already painted lol. I told the guy i needed em to jig an axle straight to weld it, and asked him the price. He said .46 cents a pound. I went ok, i just need a 30" piece, well actually two pieces of this 15" long, and its gonna be a ***** to cut it in half. He went ahead and cut em 15" long in his chop saw, weighed em, and said oh heck, just take em. Said bring em back when you wear em out. I was shocked. So now i have the jig pieces to do this.
