I used 2.5" x 2.5" tube, 1/4" wall, because that's what my local metal provider had in the remnants section. I ended up welding "plate" washers on the inside to better fit the trackbar as there was a gap between the bushing and the tube. I guess the bonus was that it probably helps prevent the wallering as Nobody said.
As everybody said, run the brace for sure. I have seen some nasty pictures of very short drop mounts (so short that they thought a brace was unnecessary) rip out the frame.
