I'm in the process of redoing my rockers with rectangular steel tube..
Few QQQ's first..
Most of my reading has lead me towards using 5" x 2" or 5" x 1-1/2".
But many different thicknesses 1/8", 3/16" and even 1/4".
What is the ideal thickness to use? I'm not sure if my heep will see a lot of rocks, more mudd'n than anything.
I figure the 5" width is good enough to weld directly to the pinch seam and still have a bit stick out passed the bottom of the doors
Is it a good idea to pre-weld a length of 1/8th angle bracket to the pinch seam?
