Jerry,
Speaking to a pro why does it not surprise me that you would question the size?
The whole bar is 2" OD interior. the 1/4" is some thing new. I'm putting it in a lathe cutting 4"s of to fit inside the normal 2" OD tube. The large end will be welded to the main bar for a connection to the down bars. The other end will be cut down on the lathe to fit tightly into the down bar. This keeps us from having to weld a smaller tube into the bigger one for a connection. I.E., no place for rust to start in a non existant seam, no chance at an internal weld breaking, God forbid it is evere used and stronger to boot.

Make sense?
DV
