I am going to buy about 10 sticks of 1.5" DOM tubing. I thought I's see who else wanted to get in on the action and maybe do a group buy.
Right now the only price I have is $75 per 20' stick from a local supplier called RPM. I think if we can buy 20 sticks we can get the price down to $50 each? I also plan to solicit bids from Oneal which is a wholeseller. If we get enough interest RPM might be able to order it directly from Sisken who makes it in Chattanooga which would save a lot of money.
Basically I'm looking for people to say they want some. I'm guessing it will be about a month or two before we actually place the order depending on interest and when people will have the money.
DOM verses HREW? The difference can be techinical, but DOM is stronger than HREW. It's also more expensive. I beleive it's worth it though. Some of my buggy is HREW and some is DOM. The HREW is badly dented and the DOM still looks like new except for one or two dents. In my personal opinion from how it's held up in my buggy there is a significant difference in strength and it's well worth the extra money.
