Square tubing size for narrowing your frame.
Hello everyone. I usually hang out in the 88-98 section. I am going to be narrowing my frame at some point to put some big meats and start taking my truck out to the drag races. I would like to know what is a common size of square tubing and thickness do most people use when narrowing the frame. Thanks in advance

Re: Square tubing size for narrowing your frame.
2"x3" is pretty common.

Couple questions. How fast are you planing on going? How big of a tire can you get on there now? Bigger doesn't always equal faster. More rotational weight and more drag do to a wide contact patch could slow you down. Posted via Mobile Device
