i am going to test a new welder this week. it has a tig option so i can weld aluminum and stanless steel. i have some one inch stanless high grade thin wall tubing. a ten foot piece wieghs only a couple pounds. it is really thin but supported at the ends i can do a pull up and it doesnt flex hardly at all. i am going to make a set of trailing arm out of it and then get smaller stuff to make the steering and radius rods. then make the rear suspension brakets out of staneless. that should be an easy twenty pounds. i was talking to a couple speed shops and they want a pair to give to a certain customers that ride hard if they hold up they will by a couple sets for stock and sell them for me. I mostly want to do it for my sled so it would look trick, and also the chrome molly arent made for flat land sleds and spicifically for the xcr 800.
i talked to some light wieght makers and they said they would be carefull with there own products riding hard on a trail theres are made for the mountains and poweder. the sucky thing is it will take about one to two months to get the machine if i like it. o well then i can get field work done atleast while i wait.!!!!!!!!!
nothing goes like three holes!!!!!!!
