Hey Drew, is that what you meant when you said your wheeler was liquid cooled lol.

What it lacks in ground clearance it makes up for with traction. -
I wouldn't (and didn't) use pipe. The problem is that pipe is spec'ed by ID and often has a bump inside where the seam is. I think you'd be better off using tube, which is spec'ed by OD and wall thickness. Using tube you can get sizes that fit inside each other much nicer than pipes do. For instance, a 3/4" tube will have a nice sliding fit into a 1" tube with .120 wall thickness. The closes thing with pipe would be a 1/2" pipe and a 3/4" pipe, and those don't slide into each other.Originally posted by Normable1973 View Post
I'll try to post some photos and materials list, and dimensions for the new laterals I built. I'm just really swamped right now.Comment

I guess I should have been more specific(not everyone is a fabricator), your right blk pipe has a seam bead and will not have a perfect fit, I just think everyone knows this stuff, that's why I said there are many different combos that will work. It's nice when you finish and everything is tight... Norm....Comment

I didn't mean to get too pedantic about it. It seems that a lot of people don't get the difference between tube and pipe and if you don't fab stuff up semi regularly you might not really understand the difference between the long hollow stuff you can get at the plumbing aisle at Home Depot and some of the alternatives.
I also found that having some adjustable reamers was a big help in getting a good fit again after your welding has distorted the outer tube. I'm sorry to admit that I had to do some filing a couple of time before I was ready for the reamer.Comment
