I would only suggest drilling some holes in the existing tube and plug welding to the sleve just to make it that much stronger. I don't know that any extra bracing is really necessary but definitely not a problem. The sleaved tubing should be just as strong as it was originally if done properly, possibly even stronger. On bracing just remeber triangles are your friend. Triangulated supports are very strong. |
