ha ha thanks

Wheeliest

roger, believe me 120 wall 1 inch steel tubing... after i bend it and it cools and i try to bend it more... with like 4 feet of leverage from the bend it can support 175lbs.. do the math and its alot of foot pounds.

Wheeliest

and i'll finally be getting gas for my stupid mig next week thank god.

Josh Faught

what is 120 wall? is that like schedule 40 or what?

Wheeliest

120 wall is thickness, lets just say SI cages are 80 or 90 wall 1 inch steel tubing.

schedule 40 is pipe.

old man roger

i use the same material and if you bend it to sharp it is way weaker then a nice round smooth bend ,i wasn't bashing i was just giving you some advise

Josh Faught

Ya it will make a crease and then it has no strenth at all

Wheeliest

damn it roger, if it dont break how am i going to have repeat customers..

old man roger

lol ..ok

Josh Faught

ha ha +1 on the job security

Wheeliest

the mounts on the subframe will tear off before taylors subcage breaks/deforms. he crash's the most out of all the az stunters... soo we'll see...

old man roger

it gives a little more tire clearance as well if your not using a hydrualic bender and you are heating it to bend it then just heat a little larger area of the tubing and the bend will be a little bigger or if you bend it around somthing like a bend jig just make the radius a little wider

Wheeliest

i fill it with sand before i bend it so it barely loose any ID/OD with a super sharp curve..

Josh Faught

def stronger if you make a bend with out heat

old man roger

i cold bend mine with a hydraulic bender

Wheeliest

i bend it with my telecawatsis powers.

Josh Faught

thats the way to go any time you heat and cool steal it weakens it

old man roger

yea see ...lol
so stop telling people yours are stronger then mine....
us little guys have to stick together just to compete with the the big three lets not cut each others throat there is enough to go around with out us bashing each other

PLAYA-P

cant stop laughing.....my bender will beat up ur bender....you should join forces and take over the world :YEAH

old man roger

hahaha he doesn't have a bender and thats the point ....lol
