Why the extra expense of the cromo when it wasn't (by my reckoning of the BITD rules) required? Probly not much of a cost difference so I'm not really concerned with that but more if I am missing something in what I am looking at in the BITD rules... |

All of it. . .even the body lift is 4130 chromoly. I think that one cross bar on the tire carrier is DOM but that's it on the whole truck. |
