I'm using 1/4" thick by 1/2" wide steel. I forget the particular alloy, but I picked one off of McMaster's site that was rated highly for durability and 'good' for machinability... 4 bars per suspension station (2 per wheel). I'm doing 4 per day in amongst the rest of it. I posted some links to pics in my 'Atlanta to Savannah speed record' post, which shows how far the hull has come. 5 days from now, I'll have the suspension ready for drilling and mounting :) (That's why I've been fiberglassing the lower hull furiously so that it's ready, too!)
