couple pics...
The only reason I smoothed over the welds on the outside is because hes having them powder coated. The inside welds are still there.
close up of how I drilled the ends of 1.5" square tube with a 2" hole saw to fit tight around the 2" DOM.

I like the bars. They are strong as fornicate and not really as heavy as they look. I guess bc they are only 11ga -1/8" wall.

Yep, there is a big side by side mud drag race that happens the 1st weekend in August every year. Some of the other BBF guys went to it and kicked ****. I wanna meet up with them midwest guys and see how we compare from an east coast setup to theirs.
