Where to get bushing/tube kits?

I think I used to get them from M.O.R.E. but looks like they don't sell DIY parts now.

I am just looking for a piece of tube with some fitted bushings.

  I'd recommend Ruffstuff for a lot of parts like that.

That site is awesome, they have everything my little DIY heart could ever want!

you could also get some pieces of steel tubing that the bushings fit into at a local metal shop

Yeah, I was considering building my own using frame tube bushings simply because they are CHEAP, and I will most-likely be able to find them forever.  I also have a few sets at any given time.  I have access to a mill, so I could just buy the right size drill bit/reamer to make them out of what ever size tube I want.  I bet I could make them for allot cheaper than $16.50/$13.50.

Would anyone be interested in a few at say $10 a piece to offset the costs of the tooling for me?  The would probably not be quite as pretty as the ones you

I might be interested. The one thing I like about the ruffstuff ones are that the bushings are sleeved, would yours be as well?
