Wishbone tube
Can't find this after searching so please help- what's the best size tube to make wishbones- 25mm dia x 2mm wall? Or can I get away with 16guage wall?
Thanks chris |
I used 25mm od 3mm wall tubing, they take a fair bit of force and punishment and as they are keeping the wheels attached I didn't want to skimp on wall thickness / strength
Others more learned than I will offer more advice but I broke a Volvo a/r bar on a pothole so erred on the thicker wall tube hth Gary |
thanks gary, iv gone with 2mm as thats what I managed to get my hands on

Hi,
Did you make sure the tubes are seamless/EWR? That is also very important. Here is a link to Talon's page about his wishbones: http://www.talonmotorfabrication.co....bones/10165076 He uses 25x2 EWR tubes. I think we can trust him (personally, I have his wishbones on my Roadster) Hope that will help :) . |
Hi vought yes went with erw 1" x 14guage in the end, have been in the unit all weekend making bones, only 3 left to do now, and if I have to make another after that it will be too soon !:mad:
