When Dave talks about "tubes", he's saying the same thing that I did above when talking about using 1/2" Allthread and locknuts to replace the shock and lock the lower control arm into the correct position to hold it. Tubing is the professional way to do it. Allthread is the down and dirty "home garage" way to do it. All of this can be very confusing to someone who has never done it, so I will try to over-explain everything.

Scroll down here to see tubing used in the place of coilovers during building......
