Quick Tubing Question

Is 1 1/2 inch HREW .120 wall tubing alright for exo-cage applications on an XJ? For my bumpers and rock skidders I was going to use 2 inch .120 wall HREW since they will be taking most the bashing around. The guy bending my cage only has a 1.5 and a 2 inch die otherwise I would consider 1 3/4 inch tube.

I think 2 inch is a bit overkill.

Thoughts? Advice?

Thanks!! :)
 
.120 may not hold up to rock bashing too well, but if that's what you use, the smaller diameter will withstand localized loads better than the larger diameters.
