Maybe I need to go to specsavers but I cannot find any specs for the material used for the wishbones apart from the obvious dimensions. Do I need ERW or seamless and what wall thickness?
All help greatfully recieved

A bit about the differences between the tube types and why the are used. This end of things is more important as your health and well being are at stake, when it comes to any of the suspension stuff I wont short change anything just to save a few quid. Have seen enough failures in this department and its never pretty.
