    Still haven't got a set for my 76 2 door. If I were to have a set made, any ideas on size of square tubing? I would appreciate information on fabricating and installing a set of Fr. Conn's. Hopefully I can avoid some of the pitfalls that seem to be so attracted to me whenever I do a project. Thanks.....Paul

    I make them out of either 2" X 2" X 1/8" wall square tubing or 1 5/8" round tubing.
