The question then is what size aluminum 1/8 thick tubing be enough or would I wanna be 3/16 or even 1/4. I'm thinking 3/16 is where I should be. I'll only be running sleds on it so it doesn't have to be built to hold quads or side by sides which I guess may allow me to build it a little lighter...
I am personally not as proficient at welding aluminum but I have a friend who works for beer and laughs that has more experience welding aluminum then I do so I'm not worried about the welding just wanna get the best bang for my buck. Although both materials are not cheap lol

So I'm gonna build a sled deck! Been thinking about it for years and it's finally time. Not because I can't afford one but just because I want to able to design it the way I think will work best for me. Now the only question is steel or aluminum maybe you guy can help me decide what material is...
I put idlers on the front when I bought it but we all know last year was a special case of no snow lol I'm gonna try ski scratchers I think seems like best solution so far. Maybe put on a set of ice storms and remove those useless stock ones
I know or have heard of many owner having this issue in low snow conditions and I've heard everything from adding second scratchers to adding idler wheels. I'm sure by now someone has figured out a for sure fix and I'd like to have it before this season starts did 3 sets last year and don't plan...
Went ahead and order 5 beofeng radios got all 5 for the price of 1 bca so kinda a no brainer haha. If they work as good as everyone reviews them on here and multiple other sites Ill be very impressed.
Baofang looks interesting I had seen them online but seems to me like a little difficult to setup but work great. I'm kinda torn between those and the bca ones but probably a lot easier to talk my riding buddies into 45 bucks rather then 145 lol
rode with a guy on weekend who had kenwood vhf radios had an extra so i used it absolutely loved it. But for that price not sure if its worth it plus all the registering and licensing. So whats everyone using out in the backcountry?
Even an experienced rider that's never done it before can have a rough go at it. Aka my buddy last year flipped his new xm with only the miles from trailer to first switchback before it flipped and slid down the rocks on its side haha
i have high mark pro because like you i think the inflation around head is the best there is its relatively light. half the weight of the older high mark 22 lots of room for everything you need on the mountain. mine weighs close to 20 pounds loaded with what i bring on mountain and i barely...
