adrianpike Posted November 2, 2006 Report Share Posted November 2, 2006 Are we talking the OMP design with heim joints on the ends?A design like that only braces in one of the 3 load axes, just FYI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

larryo108 Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 I think the DIY one that Mike is after was the same design as what you see in Greg's photo.... only the bar was welded on both ends rather than just the one side. It did not have heim joints anywhere if I recall correctly. I think GT2 was the correct member though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike H. Posted November 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 As Larry108 mentioned, both side were welded on. GT2 sounds like the right person. I'll PM him. Or if he can chime in here for materials used and has those pictures he posted, that would be awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
