I saw these on SiS and I know a few guys are looking for something like this and they are cheap.

That's not a bad price. I noticed a couple people commented on the welds and they do look a little boogered. I'd like to see the finished product. As hard as I twist my XJ off road I think I need frame stiffeners before I start taking the doors off.

Those just look hokey.  looks like a guy makes them in his basement.  i'd buy the ones from quadratech 1st.  without close ups of the welds like people are asking for if you zoom in on them they look like booger welds.

If you contact him you might be able to get some better pics of the welds.  For the price you could always grind down the wleds a little and get some one who knows what they are doing to fix them up.   ;)
