A monkey can weld....the problem is that it will look like a monkey welded it when it's done. Some people like things done right and not just "done".

This is kind of interesting. I was about to purchase a kteller pipe kit myself. Not to thread jack at all, but are the kits the linked website sells exactly the same as the kteller ones, hangers and flanges all included? Anybody purchase from them?

So they are identical then, and include all of the same stuff? The website seems kinda low quality...and there isn't a whole lot of info on each product as far as specs, and what's included.

Not bad, thanks for answering my question. Glad I found this before I purchased the same thing from Kteller for more.

Anyone have experience with there 88-91 tubing kits, just wondering how the "over-axle" piece is for the rear. Seems like pretty decent pricing if it's T304 and it comes with hangers.
