a few min ago i ordered my 2 plasmaglow kits form phil....putting 2 kits under my truk is going to be fun....im not too worried about getting them to fit on the sides..im sure they will be ok there but my problem is the front and rear tubes....where the fusion kit is,is perfect but only one tube cant fit where they are.....so do you think it would be ok if i ziptied two tubes together...one tube woud be ziptied to the truck and the second tube ziptied to first tube to hold it in place....i cant really see another place to put a second front tube and rear tube....i would think if i put a **** load of zipties that it would hold..what do you think?

make sure its braced down and after you zip tie it to the tube run some zipties to the fram as well...or else its going to be swaying in the wind

alright thanks..thats basically what i was planning on doing....putting one on the frame and ziptieing to that....but of course i'll probably use like 15 zipties across the tubes to make sure it doesnt go anywhere..the last thing i want is a tube falling off while im driving down the street

yea theres nothing like lexan.....that stuff is great...and if im correct(i was told this by someone i work with) a 1" thick peice of lexan is actually bullet proof glass....so just imagine if they lexan was an 1" thick around the tubes...it would never break..but would cost 10 times as much

hell if it was 2x as thick it would be real hard to break, that is why if i get a kit i will but lexan over them so i wouldn't break a tube because i go on gravel some times
