I have been looking for some 2" x 0.120 steel tubing to build a roll bar to replace my hacked targa bar. Can anyone in the norcal area point me to a reasonably priced supplier? I have found it at about $7.50 a foot for 1018 cold rolled steel in the aforementioned size. Also is this a reasonable price (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) . I could swear that i saw it for around 4 bucks a foot but now i can only see these $7.50 and up. Am i looking at a the wrong type of tubing or what?

I paid $2.00 a foot for cold rolled 1.5" X .095 in 2009. I bought 100 feet, 20 foot sticks. At that time DOM was $4.00 a foot almost. I got it from C&C metals in Santa Maria. Nothing special about them except that they delivered it to me the next Tues from 45 miles away. Call around to the metals places in your phone book. The metals places don't seem to have any internet presence at all. The phone book is that heavy yellow thing they plop on your porch every fall. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
