    Roger its quite common place to make anti roll bars in chrome moly tube, I've made them in it for years, it works very well.

    Its aweful lonesome in the saddle since my horse died.

    Yeah, Steve, I'm a bit red faced by my comment , especially after Jack posting his info from Hotchkiss. Should have known you'd already done your homework on the material, but it looked "light", and then Jerry's comment.... Sorry for the bother

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
