Looking to get some tube. I'm buying 8 sticks of 1.5 .120 HREW. I'm going to call around for the best pricing. Post up if you want some. I can ask for DOM as well and other sizes.
The more we get the better prices.
Also I'm getting 2x4 3/16 box and 1/4" plate.
I'll do my cost + chip in for fuel if I have to travel for it.
1.5 x .120 HREW - $2.00/ft (locally) (12 minimum)
Matt Hadfield - 8 sticks
Josh - 1 stick
JT - 1 stick
1.65 x .120 HREW - 3.73/ft (for all 12 sticks)
Dave/Rob - 12 sticks
1.25 x .120 Hrew - 3.60/ft
Dave/Rob - 1 stick
prices are plus tax

I would estimate 5 sticks for a cage. Assuming this is a complete cage. I have 7 in mine without the door bars but it includes all the front stuff.
Just got a quote. $2/ft locally plus tax for the HREW.
Apparently there is a huge shortage on 1.75 so it's $9/ft and he can't guarantee that he can get it.

21 ft
I added a list to my first post. Also I'll be ordering next week. So I'll need the money by then. I can take paypal as well as long as you pay the transaction fee.

Rob smith here. We would need 1 5/8 for the cages if your source can get it. We do not have the 1.5 dye for the bender. (also have 1.25 and 1.75 dyes in case anyone needs to bend these)
Also interested in 2x4 box maybe we can split a stick. Just need enough for 2 bumpers.
I may be able to go help pick it up but need at least a week advance notice.
Make it 12 sticks of 1 5/8 x .120 HREW and 1 stick of same type in 1 1/4. I have other things to make that I need tube for.:D

I'll check those sizes.
What brand of bender?
The 2x4 box I only need 6 feet of which is enough for one bumper. So I'm sure we can work something out.
Thanks for the offer on the picking up. I'll let you know.

I don't have a truck but may be able to go to offer moral support and loading/strapping stuff down support.:thumb:
It is an old bender with no real brand on it. It was sold/made by Hughes Engineering in Florida but could not find any current business info online.

The 14' of box is 65.10 + tax and the 3% paypal fee if you want to pay with paypal or you can bring cash by.
The guy I usually talk to for pricing was off today. I'll get that tomorrow.
All my paypal address is
hadfield4wd@yahoo.com
If you want to pay via paypal you will be responsible for the 3% fee.
