Suspension parts .... PART 2 (ALK)
Suspension parts .... PART 2 (ALK)
Group buy is now finished,. please contact me direct for members prices
Guys,
As the droplinks have now come to a end, it's time to move on and start on the next project Anti Lift kit,
Taken from another site :
Anti Lift Kit
When accelerating, loading on a car changes. The movement forces more weight onto the back end making the car 'sit down' (suspension to compress) and the front end to raise (extend suspension). This happens not only from a standing start but also when driving.
when this accours your changing the balance of the car and also the grip level on the tyres.
Due to this the front end becomes light and traction for turning and control becomes a problem.
The anti lift kit comprises two parts, the bracket and the bush's (although they are usual sold together as same part). The bush's are made of a firmer material and therefore don't flex as much, the brackets are also stiffer but also changes the location and geometry of the control arm . The new mount also relocates the arm in another plane to add 0.5 deg. static positive castor

Our plans again are to make a quality part... I know the newage kit will be more expensive to make due to the spacers needed for the kit.
Retail will be £129.99 inc vat .....
Group buy prices, I will be aiming to do these for £80+ vat,... but I am still waiting for a price for the bushes
These will only come in the hard anodise finish
Alloy sleeves,
Orange bushes and engraving.
I already have the cnc program so they won't take as long as the droplinks
Cheers Chris

Not sure yet mate, as I amv not sure who are making the bushes for us yet. Still waiting for three different companies to get back to me
The material is coming in friday so I will most likely be here in the holiday making them up
Just let me know when you have a final price and I'll make the payment.
Am I right in remembering that Suspension parts - Part 3, you will be making rear ARBs? Will these be alloy or steel?

No problem .
I will make it clear for this one that people that want to take part in this one will have to wait for us to make these.
I will put a lead time down in the new year which I will stick to. But this will be when I know the bushes will be here ... or if I already have them
I am sorry if people where disapointed with the delays for the droplinks, but it was not 100% my fault... we were messed about so many times with the bush manufactures it was unreal,.
I do offer very good prices and even better quality parts.
I have more staff starting in January which will help out,.
Once we have this order, I am sorry but I can't have anyone else jumping in at the end .
Will update when I know more
Thanks Chris

When is the Group Buy closing for these? Am I right in thinking you won't have a solid price until you have secured a supplier for the bushes?
Thanks, Rich.
Thanks, Rich.
