Re: Rookie team questions on chassis and drive train
3/8" is either too big or too small.
The most common wall thickness is 1/8" on a 1x1 or larger tube. For a drivetrain, you probably want at least a 2"x1"x1/8" wall tube. Unless, of course, you have sheet metal thickness.
A 3/8" outside dimension tube will be too small for a drivetrain.
