2x3 box tube, 0.188 wall thickness works very well.

.188 is preferrable, but .120 can be used. Mine are .120 and have dents here and there from hard landings, but they have held up well through the years.

1 1/2" Schedule 40 pipe is cheap and effective aswell. Its also commonly used on the outside of the sliders to use as "Bump outs" for side objects.

The steel yard?

I used 2x4x.120 on mine, and 2 others. .120 was MUCH cheaper at my local yard.
