Yes, I'll check lock to lock.
I cut it up today, the wall thickness is ~.110" with an OD of 1.128" I machined a piece up today and will finish it tomorrow as time allows. A couple of rosette welds, another around the diameter and it will be like new for a little time and zero expense. The splice is a press fit, and I added a witness line to keep it all lined up.
