WTK: Kifaru Aluminum stays

[JoshTX]

I'm looking to have someone make me some aluminum stays for a DT frame I bought. Obviously, they no longer offer these and since I don't have an ass, I need an aluminum option to bend to my curvature. Does anyone remember what type of aluminum the OG stays were and the dimensions?

Thanks in advance

Josh ,I have an original Kifaru frame that I bought with a Longhunter pack bag in around 2005. I could pull one of the stays out and send pics if that would help.

Man that would be very helpful

When I did a DIY version a few years back, I found that they used 3/16" thick 6061 T6.

^Not sure if that was Duplex, Duplex Tactical, or both. Sorry!

Here are some pics. 3/16 x 1'' wide and mine were 26 '' for a 26'' frame. No markings to say what type of Aluminium. ORIGINAL Duplex frame.
