def use the 2x3, if you feel confident, you could use the 1/8" wall, but i use 3/16". i got a stick of 2x4 3/16" wall for 78 dollars like 3 weeks ago.

Geeze iLLblazer, I am not complaining, I am asking a question. Do you take me for an idiot?



he's just saying not to complain about the price... we've gotta pay a lot more for metal up here. Don't get all worked up the guy is just trying to help, and he did bring up a good point about the exhaust being bigger than 2" anyways... as well as the verticle strength not being there.

I say if your gonna build a frame you may as well do 2x3... if your building something and worried about spending a little extra money then maybe just save up a bit more till ya can or something?

I'm using 2x3 in my mazda, i wouldn't trust 2x2 myself.

Yep, I appologize. I do seem to get worked up on this webstie too easily. MOSTLY BECAUSE OF BYC.

Sorry iLLblazer. Thanks for your help, and I will go with 2x3.
