I would seriously consider saving your money to put towards your own welder.Hate to see you spend those same hard earned dollars twice.Nobody you can borrow one from?As far as the specs,when I ordered my cage the company sent those with my bars.

Your profile doesn't say which state you live in.If you're in VA (or close) you can borrow mine
