Talking Traiing arms

ok, i am not sure if i should put this in here or on the suspension board, but here goes, for anyone who has made their own trailing arms what size rectangular tubing are you using and wall thickness, i was pondering on using 2x3 rectangular with a wall of.188, i know. .250 is too thick but would .125 be too thin, just a thought as the wife is now letting me spend money on my truck, even with a kid coming in a month, i love her!!!!. i am about to start on my frame in 3 weeks so just collecting things that i needd.

Thanx James

Re: Traiing arms

alot of times it is easier to buy parts instead of making them I know that alot of companies have great descent quality parts.
To each it's own but I have learned my lesson over the years...

Good luck!!!!
