    WTB: SWB torsion tube

    The torsion tube in my '68 is broken in the middle. Outside looks solid, but the inside is rusty. Looking to find a decent solid torsion tube. If anyone out there has a good, relatively rust free tube, I'm in the market.

    Note: 65-68 tubes should all work on my '68 (I *think*). The 69-89 tubes, unfortunately, have different trailing arm mount positions and won't match the swb trailing arms. I originally thought the tubes were the same, but the mount position of the tube along the frame was 2.5" back for a LWB. After quite a lot of reading, I now think the mount position of the tube is the same for both SWB and LWB but the trailing arms are different.
