Check out this picture:
2x1x.125 Tubing refers to the size of a piece of Rectangular Aluminum tube. In this case, 2" would be the 'B' dimension, 1" would be the 'A' dimension and .125" would be the 'C' dimension.
If you were to take this piece of tubing in a short length, let's say 3"-6" long, and bolt it to the bottom of your chassis using the 2" dimension as your height, you could raise your axles up a total of ~1.5" to 2" depending on where you drill holes in the tube. If you were to make a 45* cut into the tube and make that 45* portion stick out in front of the leading edge of the wheel, it would contact the barrier first and start lifting the chassis up before the wheel hits. That would make it easier to get over the bump with KOP wheels.
