What if a male to female extension ~ 1.5" were made so it fits between the coupler and tunnel bar so it is all a bolt-on solution? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)
Eliminates cutting, aligning, adding material, and welding... I need one! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

Seems feesable... Tell rennegade to do it.. but then they wont make as much money ($200 for 1.5in of tube, and 30 seconds of weld... hmm)
IMHO, this would be great for the non welder guys.. but for me.. its 10x easyer and one less piece to break/ adjust.. Make one... and have someone (DLO for instance) mass produce them.. If it works for the suby too.. added bonus (BONUS!!!) |
