Fletcha's Rear Bar Build with Tyre Carrier

**big_fletch** · 17th June 2012, 06:13 PM

Got a fair bit done today, main bar is done and side wings are welded on.. Stub axles are also welded in ready to go.. Starting to look like a bar now me thinks.. Next is to recess all the lights in and finish the wings..

Few more shots

comming along nicely fletch

**big_fletch** · 17th June 2012, 09:32 PM

Thanks guys, I'm pretty wrapped with how its coming along.. Yes they are stub axles, one will be for a swing away tyre carrier and will also have my high lift jack mounted behind the tyre as well.. Otherside will be a jerry can holder..
So far steel, stub axles and a few other bits and pieces have come to about $150 all up so I reckon total cost will be under $500 including getting it all powdercoated at the end
