Ok? I've don some research now about aluminum in holand.
Whanted to now the cost and work. Cost is oke, work achievable :-).
Whant to do the welds my self, only bending the squire tubes would be difficult.
Any Idea's :? :? Could find 6060 T6 Alu and no 6061 T6. Big differense????
Some people say that if I weld on a alu frame it gets les stong near the welds. For about 30% to 80% according to
what I've found on the internet.
Still I'm looking to start with and share it here!!!!!!!

Dutchie....There are many ways to "skin a cat" My way is most certainly one of the hardest, having to hunt the right tube and then bend it. In this photo, the solution is easy to see. Just add about 3 inches. I DID NOT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH ANY WORK ON THIS FRAME No matter what path you take you still have to cut somewhere and then weld it back.

Today I went to get the 07 frame. Looks great :mrgreen:
First I'm gone clean and prepair my old 04 rmz to sell it. Than start to
take the alu frame and the K5 apart. And to take a look how to squise the engine in the alu frame. :| :-D
Look forword to it.
