Could you please post some pictures of your trussed D30?

I´ve to replace my "worn out" D30 and a D44 is out of budget (over here in "f/\wking expensive Germany") - so I´ll start with a "new" D30 (out of a totally stock XJ) and want to truss it for more stability.

TIA!

i used a blank truss from T&T as a starting point and built everything else myself
 
is there anything to be watchful for when welding to the axle tubes? can too much penetration screw your tubes up, or is it a pretty safe venture?

wow that last sentence sounds waaaaaay wrong

If I had my time over again? Buy the TNT and get on with the build.
