What about these weld-on tube ends?

They are used in rally cars to add bracing tubes to existing roll bars. Diam is 40mm.

Now that's a damned good idea Sylvain and the best bit is I can go and collect them as they are only 5 miles away from me.

Agree, took me ages to get a bent bit of CDS tubing from someone at a reasonable rate done correctly. :rolleyes:

it's not so much what he manufactured it's the fact he totally ignored me with regards to the materials. I requested 3mm wall thickness and he used 6 mm and it ways a bloody ton, and an aweful lot more work to drill through.:mad:

Raise the spring rate on the rear to compensate Arfon :p

TheArf 19th May 2015 06:40 PM

Think I will need air ride to compensate, hey air ride now I bet thats something no-one has tried on a haynes, went to demon tweaks and got the parts, £11 and odd pence don't forget if you look at demon tweaks you have to add vat. Did you know that jjc rally is also demon tweaks but cheaper.;)
