3" .120 wall DOM would be what I'd make this bar of if I were going to do it. Gonna be heavy tho.
Well someone weighed theirs and it was 8lbs. So if 0.12 is heavier, than robispec uses thinner wall.

3" .120 DOM is around 3.7 pounds per foot.

I'd guess they're more in the .08 or even .06 range.

Well it ant a roll bar, it's a chassis stiffener so even 0.6 should do its job.

So ill say it again, only do a seat belt off a roll cage only.

For chassis stiffening, you don't need anything more than the stock bar.

This is for harness mounting, which I think .06 is woefully inadequate for.
