yeah shipping is a little more but no big deal. its just easier to have a flat rate than find out each individual price. Smaller towns are usually a little bit more.

 

still waiting for some orders here. I just got them packaged, and ready to ship out. come on now.... my supermoto needs new shoes. I'm going on a trip from San Jose CA to San diego CA 80% offroad. Probably about 8-10 days.....cant wait.

 

hey, someday can i order this to you. right now im just really broke

 

PM'ed. I'm in no rush so take your time.

 

aside from the time i've put in designing these arms, i have about 1300 invested. I try not to go overboard but i cant help it when making parts like these. For now all i want is to break even. I only made them because i saw the current arms on the market as being barely enough and nobody saying something about it. Look at CPP and CTP and ECS. theres nothing new but they choose to charge alot. The CPP end if it bends you better believe you are paying for the whole arm. CPT well you can weld just about everything, and then insert a stud. I chose not to do that for accuracy reasons. it is extremy hard to get a precise line when welding. What i mean is try to make a straight line, or atleast accurate when welding 3 pieces out of a 25" arm. I'd say highly unlikely. I made these thigs with 2 thoughts in mind. Easy replacement of parts if ever needed( which is unlikely) and lower the cost while not compromising the strength of a vital suspension part. (i did keep the cost lower as a loss to me since i postedthe 200 price. I'm not close to recovering my expenses but i figure if i sell one set, people might talk about the quality and see the benefits and eventually i will get it all back.

oh yeah, my time is paid in enigneer hours. I work for Qualcomm designing IC's. If you like talking on your cell phone...... well i probably designed one or more of the chips inside of it.

Also please chime in and give me some ideas for new...CHEAPER... designs. i'm always up to a challenge, and i'll make it a part number deal. just like these arms.

 

I appreciate what you are doing, however making a good product is not enough. I would suggest an explaination on the advantages of what you are trying to sell. If the benefits outweigh the cost people will buy a more expensive unit. They are an upgrade option that isn't necessary, so there should be some explaination on what they can do to help with handeling, flexibility, etc. This is only a suggestion, so please accept it as such.

 

I guess for the most part i'm assuming people have read my previous posts, but the probability is low so here it is.

The main difference in these arms versus stock is the adjustability options and the higher strenght.

Against the competition currently on the market, these arms provide unmatched strength from the heavy duty rod end and from the fork end which i had manufactured using high strength steel with a 3/4" connecting bolt. Aftermarket competition uses 5/8" bolts. The second advantage of not making it one piece is that if you somehow manage to damage the part, the bolt will probably damage first and is replacable. Having a one piece fork end makes you buy a complete end ifthat accident occurs. The shaft is made of black hard anodized hex aluminum for easy adjustment. I have used both steel and aluminum when producing these parts and the aluminum has proved to be a top choice, due to its strenght, ease fo adjustability....cool factor....and coating that prevents corrosion. The thread of these ends is finesoitprovides alot of adjustment for really accurate alignment results. I can probably go on an on about little things here and there, but i can tell you that they have been proven on the vehicle that i currently drive. aside from that I had access to shops making shafts like CPT and machine shops who can turn me out a solid one piece fork end like CPP. I chose to go in the current direction for the benefits previously mentioned.

sounds good. i want a pair.

you can bill me through paypal @ drphloyd@gmail.com. thanks!

I want to add one extra feature to these guys. It is a pair of rubber boots for the rod end. It seals it from the elements and keep grease in there to keep them maintainance free.If you want them it is an extra 10 dollars on top of the 235. so 245 total. they cost me 70 for 6 pairs so i'm loosing a few dollars on these but they will ensure no mainance so i think its well worth it, for both the buyer as well as me the designer. I will install them (which is supposed to be a pain) and i will lubricate the ball joint.

they charged me 20 for shipping to packs. I recommend these for more rain prone climates. I live in California and have not had to lubricate my ball joints yetafter the initial installation, even without these, but its a piece of mind.

 

Now to clarify, could these be used to adjust camber rather that getting camber bolts?
