Id shoot for 3/16 thick, that seems to be the most common used, plus you wont have as hard as a time getting good penitration with the welder and not blowing holes through your unibody.98 Cherokee, D30/8.25 w/4.56s locked F/R -- 3 link front IRO springs rear with shackle relocation, one ton steering w/heims, hybrid cage under contruction, 33'' KM2's

my ruffstuff ones went on pretty easily, theres just A LOT of prep work involved and A LOT of welding but they are coming out pretty sweet..... literally all i did so far are the plug welds. They are no doubt a lot of work. hahha. gonna be cool too, cause it makes for a great point to tie my rock sliders in to.
I still need to get the front ones from doug and figure something out for when i do the rear.No worries, I'm not actually back, I'm just reminiscing about the old days.
