Oval Tube
Just wondering if anyone had a couple of bits of oval tube left over for the headlight supports they would be interested in selling? Also can anyone comment on how long they need to be to meet the IVA?
Cheers Dave

Hi David,
if you can,t get any oval tube then just use some round stuff squeezed in a vice as for the length.....mine are 12cm from edge of the chassis tube to the center of the hole for the headlight fitment. cheers andy

Hi David
More or less what I done mate I got a small piece of 10mm flat bar. cut it to the width that i needed, Rounded the edges with a flap disk. The end result was a rather nice dolly that I could place inside the round tube when it was partly flattened. This prevented over flattening & distorton of the tube I would make you a couple of pieces up but alas....I have no more of the 25mm seamless tube left Can't remember the length either & cannot get to may chassis to measure it for you. 140-150mm seems to ring a bell though !!??

Slightly off track but is there a minimum size of tube ? I have 19mm, left over from the rear tub and some 22mm. I don't have any 25mm.

Am I right or wrong in thinking this will fail IVA if fitted with 25x25 square for the headlamp supports.
