[QUOTE="Sakura, post: 48680, member: 2593"] Hi all, I have plenty of material to make up a stainless steel crashbar. My original intention was to use a 5/8" MS bar with s/s tube sleeves and s/s hex ends, threaded at each end only with hex tube supports bored through either side in the middle. The 5/8" MS bar is a close fit in the front UFM sidecar mounting. On doing a bit of reading I am concerned that sliding down the road on it might bend the sidecar mounting. I understand that the proprietary bars have a linking stud in between two sides that gives a bit in impact. Anyone got details of this arrangement? [/QUOTE]
