Default East coast source for 4130

Any decent shops sell 4130 tubing on the east coast? I've talked to a couple of places and prices are all over the map on 4130 right now.

I'd rather pick it up locally. S & W wants $14/foot for 1 5/8x.083.

I know its not east coast but you may want to try The Chassis Shop in Mears, MI. I just bought several feet of 1 5/8 .083 for around $8 a foot shipped several weeks ago. They have good customer service and their shipping prices are reasonable.

I ended up ordering through air parts inc. They were 4.50 per foot, no cut charges and standard shipping charges.

$4.50 for 1 5/8" .083???.

That's a great price, a lot of places charge more than that for regular DOM.

Thats who I was going to recommend. I just started dealing with them. They seem very good so far.
