Still drillin!

Seems like such a waste sometimes.  Drilling out 3/4" round bar to 5/8" id, but that's the drill!If you just can't get the right size pipe you make your own. 

This is some 12L14 round bar that I had laying around for just a job like this. This is a very free machining grade of steel, so drilling 3" through these bars was a breeze. 

These are suspension crush tubes for the inboard, lower, rear a-arms. (whew, that's a mouthful) There was nothing in there, so the plastic bushing took all the stress. They are completely hammered out now, I will do it right this time.
