need some advice from you metal fab guys
Hey guys I need some insight on tubing, specifically DOM. I'm looking to fabricate a roll cage and am unsure what size material to go with. I'm a Jeep guy gone sport compact. I'm used to using 1 5/8 .120 wall for structural projects. Now on something like the cobalt is that overkill? Or should i step up the OD, wall thickness, or both?

If you have a bender that you used for your stock on the jeep, why waste the money to switch to a different bender die.
Stick with what you know works...
Just my $0.0000000000002 worth.
