I'm no photoshopper so maybe this pic will help, it's real clear to see where you need to be. Also, do a search for "Spohn" or "SFCs" and see what all stuff you get. There's a lot of threads on his stuff.

Havent really thought about it. My dad has a welding shop and has alot of material lying around. I was just going to test fit different size tubing until I got something that fits pretty good. Right now, my plan is to use 1.5 in square tube. (3/16 in thick walls) But that could always change when I end up doing it.

Spohn's square SFC tubing was roughly "2x3" .

I have no idea, it's not my pic. It's been floating around the board for a while now. The welds I did are in the "Spohn SFC Install" thread, you can see mine there.
