[QUOTE="TBItoy, post: 610905, member: 1384"] [b]Re: Re:[/b] Why do you stalk me around the internet and call me out/talk down about any comment I make? I've literally had one conversation with you about a doubler, and ended up going a different route. Also, care to elaborate on how what I described would be creating a weak link? You pop into threads and rarely ever offer any constructive information. I know you are one of the people that "actually do" and make a lot of the parts we discuss/debate/bench race about. So your input and experience could be very valuable if you chose to present it. The casting on a 14 bolt is too small to bore out for a 4" tube. The OD of a 14 bolt tube is 3 3/8. I'd assume you'd use 4" x .5" wall DOM for tube. I'd think leaving 4-6" of stock tube, fully welding it into the center, boring the new 4" tube to press over it, plus a few plug welds and a full weld around the new/stock/center interface, would be the strongest possible way of building a 14b...? Where is the designed weak link? I'm not being facetious, I always want to learn. [/QUOTE]
