Traction Bars

Got an idea while goin to the Wyotech Campus to check it out. Is it possible to have a friend fab some traction bars for me? I was thinkin along the lines of 1 round tube goin from the frame to the rear axel on each side of the truck. Is this goin to work? How much of a pain will it be?

I think its diesel Jims web site that tells you how he made his traction bars, gives an entire list of the supplies he used. Dzl Jim's web site. its in the middle of the page, there is a bunch of interesting stuff on that page. Hope that helps
