Supplier for Outrigger??

[BigDogF250]

Finally getting to some of those dangling projects, trying to finish a wheel well rebuild and wall support project. I'm working on a photo library I will share soon in case anyone wants to see just how poor structural decisions can come back to bite the people who buy your products.

My question is: Does anyone know of someplace that actually HAS the Z Outriggers used to support the walls? I've looked in a lot of places and have not found anyone who sells them yet, calling a couple more today. I need roughly 14 of them. Current ones are spaced 44 inch on center, I'm going to cut that number in half most places.

Thanks!

But gauge thickness may not be adequate IMO to prevent future problems.

Thanks mapguy, had not found that store yet. And I agree, the design for the outriggers does not seem compatible with the WW needs. I'll keep looking around.

I ended using 5 channel and cutting to size. Definitely stronger than the flimsy factory ones.

Thanks Nayther, that will be a last resort but I didn't think about a local sheet metal shop, there are a few. Also an opportunity to over design, maybe at 10ga. I really don't want them to bend anymore.

A compotent sheet metal shop should be able to bend them up for you if you can draw them up. I think they're about 12-14 gage. The OEM ones are stamped I'm sure but no reason they can't be made on a brake.
