Tubular Crash Bar... Can't find em???

[heptone182]

Anybody know who still sells the FRONT tubular crash bar for our cars? Or atleast who makes them? Just talked to Steve over at 3SX and he tells me they only have the rear ones left and that it looks like they aren't going to be carrying anymore of the front ones.
Or anybody have one they'd like to sell?

wow. someone needs to jump on that. it's jackhammer/tackhammer's design. wayne kinda had a coniption fit & all but flipped the bird to the community (certainly seemed that way towards the NG staff). if he's still interested in making them, great. otherwise, maybe phillip at SCE would be willing to make a new design & fill the market gap.

God this is such an easy product to make. Wish I had more time I could whip these up no problem.

Sort of a long story, didn't flip the bird to the community. That was a disagreement with Lori. I'm not getting into that though.

Nobody is making them ATM. Wayne got screwed by the builder and it screwed everybody that wanted one. I wanted to help him get the guy back but oh well.

Like I said sort of a long story so that's the cliff notes.

yup, wayne got dicked over by his fab guy

[terrets]

How much did these sell for? Maybe I could fab up some...from scratch ;) heh

289 on 3sx.

When not on sale.

Whats a good size pipe to use thatll still work in the event of a crash? Its tempting..

[Keyan]

they were on 3sx for that $280ish previously stated but before 3sx bought them all and jacked the price i believe they were ~170. Its a bar. even $170 is a lot.

More like Wayne and 3SX both were dicked over unfortunately, but Wayne is trying to make things right.

[i3igpete]

yeah hopefully he/you guys can find a good (honest) fab guy in minnesota that can make these bars again.

[green-lantern]

More like we both did unfortunately, but Wayne is trying to get things handled for both of us.

Yes I know, I'm trying to leave as much out as possible. I just don't want to mention people in case they don't want it. I wanted to fuck this guy up myself. :(

Not sure about size, but I wonder if it was chromoly that was used for these...

dom tubing will work fine and be fairly affordable for a little as you need. I used 1.75", but 1.5" would be strong enough.

The whole point of it is so you do not wipe out your whole front end in as 5 MPH accident.
