what is current cost of tube $/ft?

what size do you use for roll cages?
what size for TJ fender flares?

tube cost varies with market and quantity ordered


Most buggies and roll cages are 1.75x120 wall.  some of the heavier cars now are moving to 2" to meet the above 4400lbs rule

TJ flares 1.25" usually works good.

Mike just got a bunch of 1.5" 120 wall HREW for 33$ a 24' stick- that seems super cheap to me
