What size are you looking for? I can check with the maufacturing building I work in and see what they have. They build airplane interiors, so they usually have several sizes of AND extrusion laying around. Not sure about any tee extrusion, but I can ask.

Awesome, yeah im looking for a Tee extrusion - say 1" x 1" Tee to 3" x 3" tee with anywhere from .050 to .125 thick.
The main thing is it cant be too thick, i can cut down the legs as i need..

no luck here. They only have L-angle. They checked around with a few other places that may have it, and nobody does. They could order some, but at $100/ft for a min of 12 feet to get it made, I don't believe you'd be interested in that. I'd suggest just riveting 2 L-angle pieces together. That should hold just as well as a tee extr for what you are using it for. It's not like Jake is going to be pulling 9 g's while drifting.

you guys are lucky with your manual's - the auto takes so many Quarts of fluid that it is cheaper to take it in to the dealer than it is to do on your own... not to mention the labor on manuals is easier, the auto they place the drains/fill in hard to reach places
I almost got t-boned this morning on the way into work by a Honda odyssey - damn old oriental ladies can’t drive... she would have taken out my entire driver side if I didn’t swerve... I got out of my car and started bitching her out, she apologized over and over again and started crying.. I think she thought I was going to go up to her car and beat her *** or something.... but I was so pissed...
ANYWAYS Good Morning DFW

She told me that some crazy Blonde girl in a Z bitched her out.
Well it could have been.

Indoor skiing in Grapevine anyone?

I bet it would be super crowded most of the time, unless they price out the middle class people.

Ya, I mentioned using two L angles in the thread.....but i kinda wanted the oh so clean look.....oh well..
I'm now looking up plastic extrusions online, seeing if i can get a plastic T shipped to me......that would work fine..
I called a few salvage yards, and they all say that they think they have some laying around, but you have to go in person and its hit or miss on what they have.....so i dont even wanna bother driving out to them unless they have what i need.
thanks so much for looking into it...
