I think I would like 1.750x .095" main hoops, 1.5"x.095" braces, door bars and shock mount areas, 1.25"x.095 seat mounts and other non-load places. Get some 16ga 1" square for mounting of bedsides and fenders.

What are the thoughts? Max weight on the full Ranger will be about 2400-2600 when done and complete. The title says 2988, removing 400 to 500 seems reasonable. The seats weighed about 75 on their own.

1x5"x.120 or similar strength, 1.75"x.095 is similar strength. I believe Tim used it on his main hoops as well.

Tubing with a smaller diameter or thinner than .120″ may be used for areas not mentioned above.



to me, that means areas above need 120    doesnt say similar anywhere.  lets clear this up

A,B, and C pillars must be constructed of at least 1.5″x.120″ DOM or Chromoly tubing(no HREW, pipe, or conduit allowed)

At least 1.5"x.120 ??
