Please post some good pics of the door bracing bars that you guys have made...

It is finally warm enough, and I need to go out tommorow and build these bars.

Thanx

another shot...kinda...you can see how the staight bar was bending, and not working correctly.... angle iron fixed that.

Sorry to hijack, but..
you shoulddn´t do that with the wheels on ground. Put the tub on jackstands (using the donuts). No bending of the brace cause its pulled not pushed. This also takes the stress out of the longs while yoo are grinding and welding.
