AndrewElvisFan Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I think Wicks sell it - it's called box steel. I'm sure there's loads of places online you can get it from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator drewpy Posted September 24, 2014 Moderator Share Posted September 24, 2014 I would say you need DOM steel as the cheap stuff will split Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dt502001 Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 1st wheelie bar's are never made from square tubing,unless your looking to make 12o clock bar, a drag wheelie bar has to flex so no cheap stuff ,,, cromoly ROUND tube seamless.And even a good 12o clock bar should flex or your going to snap weld points. What type of bar are you wanting to build? EDIT: old leaf springs from a car/truck are cheap and work if you do it right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Preload Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Get the steel from your local Steel Merchant not B&Q etc expensive cheap crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
