Why doesn’t Throttle Down Kustoms build welded frames?

This is a frequently asked question by many individuals new to jeeping. They are usually building their first jeep that involves frame replacement. For me the answer is simple. When I first started prototyping my jeep frames, I built a few of them by cutting and welding. After I completed the project I would stand back and look at the results, taking notice of how sloppy and patched together the welded frame made the vehicle appear. It just wasn’t quite up to my standards, and definitely not good enough for customers investing their hard earned dollars into a jeep rebuild.

What are mandrel bent frames all about?

The investment in quality mandrel bending equipment is a vital step, and one not to skip over, when building high quality, strong, eye pleasing jeep frames. Throttle Down Kustoms owns and operates all of my Mandrel equipment, which gives me the capability to do all kinds of extreme custom work, and also control the quality of the frame rails being put onto my frames. This is an investment in hundreds of thousand of dollars worth of Mandrel bending equipment and hundreds of hours of training and testing to build the best frames on the market. It’s important that I bend the rails in-house because having them pre-bent by a large steel plant does not guarantee any kind of quality.

All of my frames are packed full of cutting edge features. They are assembled in a jig to hold strict tolerances throughout the assembly process. The frames are then welded by a certified welder with years of fabrication and welding experience.

All brackets are precision made with appearance and factory specifications being a top priority. All frames are completely cleaned and prepped before being primed, galvanized or powder coated.

Custom Built Mandrel Bent Jeep Frames

If you’ve ever thought of putting a TJ suspension on a CJ, look no further. You want my new Hybrid Jeep Frame Basic frames. They are constructed from 3/16-in Mandrel bent tubing. Custom options are available, and your inquiries are welcome. Some of the most common are shackle reversals, body mounts positioned for 1-in or 11/2” lift, front shock hoops, custom motor mounts, and frame mounted custom bumpers.
