Where can I get some DOM round bar to bild my links from? I'm from Alba, just looking for someone where close. I'm looking for probably 1.5 OD .120 wall. Any help is big help.

i have not found anyone who keeps it in stock around here im sure some of the drag shops could order yo some but your best bet if you just need some for link bars is to order suicide doors kit they sell just the tubing for the bars but if you find a place let me know where

Well I know there is some places in Dallas that keep it in stock. I may have to go with SD, just did't want to have to pay the dough.

I may just end up going with SD, I dont know though. I'm going to have to get my rod ends, so I'll see. I dont even know how much the DOM would cost me. I wanna have a little extra to do some other stuff with.

I don't remember the exact price, it was expensive enough i went with regular tubing over that, didn't think it worth it for the extra strength. My dad uses it for ladder bars on his race truck, 800+HP and he's only bent them once and thats when he got off the ground, so its pretty tough shit lol

I've just been told by all the big time builders that you need to use DOM. I know you could get away with using eletric weld, but if the truck ever gets hits I dont want it to break.
