Hey all, just a quick question.

What size tube is used when moving front shackle point forward
Internal and External measurements would be appreciated haha.

I search and Couldn't quite pin point what I was looking for.

Cheers and thank you.

Cut the original shackle mount off (carefully!) and use some 100x50x2.5 RHS (which is exactly what a sierra chassis is) to extend the chassis.

You're adding an extra mount and retaining the stock one?

Measure the one on yours...

Why would you want to keep the original. It will look highly dodgy to have both

Nah tanshi, I'm making up a custom drop mount setup to a shackle for my RUF, I'm not Gunna extend the chassis just yet
The tube will be used as the scissor point where the shackle will attach

I have the measurements of the tube 29mm ID and 38mm OD

Is there any special type of tube I should use?
