I ordered some steel from onlinemetals.com the list is below.
1018 - FLAT BAR COLD FINISH 3/8" x 1-3/4" CF FLAT
4130 - ALLOY TUBE ROUND 3/4" OD x .1875" WALL
BRASS TUBE - ROUND SEAMLESS 7/8" OD x .065" Wall
A36 - HOT ROLL SHEET / PLATE 0.1875" A36 Hot Roll Plate
A513 - TYPE 5 STEEL TUBE DOM 1.25" x 0.188" Wall DOM

The following is the pivot and swing arm being made?
I drilled out the outershaft to accept the brass bushing and drilled out the brass bushing to accept the center rod then tapped the rod so it will bolt in the dash support.
