Ralphy, I had thought about doing a one piece tube a while back because my thinking was the same that it would be much stronger. But after seeing how common the 2 piece setups are I decided not to go that route.
So, I got home this afternoon to try the long tube in the cross member and it will not go with out really spreading the opening out. The long tube is 3-5/8" long and the short one is 3-7/16" long. I measured the opening on the cross member close to where it welds to the frame so I know it's not pinched up there and it's dead on 3-1/2". So I may be back to going with a 1 piece tube again.
