[QUOTE="BlackBolt9, post: 7716242, member: 36489"] From my MDS, it appears that 4130 (commonly known as chromoly), has between 44% and 51% more tensile strength than 1018 (typical cheap steel). What I still need to do is calculate the difference wall thickness makes on the strength of 1-3/4" tubing and determine how much of a weight difference there is as well. I probably won't get to that until I get home tonight though, as I already have a program written on my home computer that will do the work for me :-D That's what I was thinking of, thanks Steve:beer: [/QUOTE]
