Im having a hard time finding the large pushbar for the General Lee without having to spend $350. Does anyone know where to get them except ebay?

Can you make your own?

If you have a welder and a chop saw you could fab one up in an afternoon.  Or go to a welding and steel supply business and give them the plans and they could make one for you pretty easy.   They have all the nice cutters and bending machines in one shop. 

Go to the confederate general lee fan club website and look around for the plans....

Buildagenerallee.com does have the correct jig from the shows for the bigger push bar.  Tony is excellent to deal with.  Also the Smith Brothers at:  http://www.richardcummins.com/smithbros also make the same jig push bar with a little added bonus.  If you get a puchbar from them, they have a plate already welded onto the push bar so it bolts into your liscence plate braket.  It gives extra support to the bar so it will never sag or have to be re-hung later.  If you look at the bolts for the licence plate braket it bolts directly into there and then you can weld or bolt the arms of your push bar under the car.  The smith brothers number is on their website.  Either way you are good to go if you go that route, but they are the same jig as the ones on the show.
