1.75" .25" lowers and 1.5" .125 for lower round DOM
you can even run 1.75" solid lowers and 1.5" solid uppers
you can square 2" lowers and 1.5" uppers
the list goes on and on...depending on what $$$$ you got to spend...

Once you weld the tube, the heat treatment's invalid. I would suggest any plate you can.
Seels like 0.25" wall min is the concensus, maybe 0.375" (if it's even available) or 0.5", but bending that shite is a biotch. 2" dia tube sounds sweet, but 1.75" is the most popular as it fits most folk's bender dies.
If you cen get 4130, 4340 (chromoly), that's the ticket.
Good luck
