[QUOTE="rpf500, post: 642246, member: 6870"] As mentioned, 7075 is what you want. I got mine on ebay, from Industrial Metal sales. We buy steel and aluminum every day at work, and none of my vendors could get it at the prices shown on ebay. I was lucky to find an auction for the exact length I needed. They will give you the mill specs if you ask for it also. I ended up buying stuff for work from them as well, and they've been real good to deal with and have great prices. This came up at the GMP Hardline ride last year and there were a few other guys on here who use this company also. I lucked out and had mine done at work so I only have the material cost and a steak dinner in mine. Call around and see who can machine them for you. The kicker is the left handed tap that you have to buy unless they own one.You will have to spend some time making them shiny and nice if that is what you want to end up with. They have some print on them when they arrive, just an FYI. They look like **** in 3 hours of riding so beware of the time you spend. I won't polish them again put it that way. Here is a link to a 48" piece from the company but it's not the diameter you want. Find what you need in an auction and make an offer. They will combine items or they might make a buy it now for your specific order.
