Max - Due to overwhelming response on the group buy, can we do more than 12 people or is that your limit?
I will build more than the original 12 sets. Nik.....add some more slots to the bottom of that list. We can do a half down payment up front, then the other half before shipping. As soon as I have 10 guys call in with their down payment, that is when the door closes on how many sets will be made this time. So if you are on the fence and want in on this pricing don't drag your feet too long. When #10 calls in it's over.

I am looking into getting a v.. one of my first mods will be rims and tires. What is the absolute widest this mod will let me run if I plan on slightly lowering my car?

I want to get the ccw 505a's and cant decide if I should get 18x10 out back to be safe (This might even be pushing it I duno you tell me?) Or could I get away with a 18x11

I am running 19 x 10 wo modded trailing arms with no rubbing. I am hoping to get 11s on there with this mod. We'll see.
Nice! You think I could order 18x10.5s and be safe? like before this mod? Or would that be a big gamble

UPDATE on the project:


The tubes have BEEN cut, the gusset are cut, our super bad-ass new "CREATIVE STEEL logo" metal stamp will be here tomorrow (that we'll use to mark all our products with) I will stamp the gussets before forming and welding. The Johnny Joints will be here on Monday according to UPS.com. So that will be the day the actual fab work begins.

The request for the spherical bearings kinda caught me off guard. I hadn't done any research on the "Johnny Joints" so I didn't know which brand I wanted to use so we lost about a week while I waited for samples to arrive. Didn't feel comfortable spending $1000 -$1500 of your guys' money without seeing the merchandise first. I went with Rusty's joints. I liked the quality better than the other sample but knew that the "other" sample was made in USA (as advertised). Rusty didn't advertise that fact so I was in a bit of an ethical dilemma. Then I asked the secretary at Rusty's, she says they make them in house.........SOLD. I'm kinda old school on the "Made in USA" thing. I don't paying a bit more if I know I'm keeping one of ours out of the soup line.


Bottom line.... About two more weeks before product starts leaving here (powder coat will take a few days)


Could someone update the guys on ***************. I'm not yet a vendor over there yet. Already got my "you know what" slapped for talking too much.
