I'm looking into building a set of lower control arms using either Johnny Joints or Balistic Fab's flex joint with 1 1/4" X 12 threaded shanks and 1 3/4" OD heavy wall DOM tubing....I know it's probably overkill. Now, instead of using weld in tube adapters, I would rather tap the bore of the tube but, it would require a .281" wall to do so. The only tubing I have been able to find has a wall thickness of .250". I know that Teraflex has tubing available pre-tapped in modular lengths with right and left hand threads on opposite ends and they state that their tubing is 1.75"OD X .281" wall. Is there such a tube (and where can I get some?) or are theirs perhaps, heavier wall (or solid) drilled and tapped to those dimensions :dunno: Thanks for any light you could shed on this. P.S.... I would give them a call but, it's been my experience that alot of companies are reluctant to give out info of that sort---------Hans
