Wanted: Piece of pipe for crossmember hole

Post by broke »

As it says in the title. I'm after something 3.5"-4" diameter to enlarge my crossmember exhaust hole, only has to be 100mm long possibly even less.

Thanks.

I could ask the workshop if they could roll you a piece of 18 gauge ?

Wont be very thick though, maybe only 1.2mm

Yeah that would work if nothing else comes through, would have to be cheap though!

I don't think the original material is very thick so that shouldn't be an issue.

I could get 2 of them rolled for you, then double skin them up and spot together ?

If i can find some non Galv then my mate Dave will hook me up. I spent 2 days working helping him to fix the CNC plasma

Hamish is having a look for me too, I'll let you know if he can't come up with anything. Cheers.

My guy turned up today with a couple of pieces of 100mm sheet metal rolled into a cross member circle. they are 1.2mm thick.
