There were but I don't know of any currently, you probably won't be able to make money on it unless you really get your costs down

its not a money thing for me, id rather help out the community more or less.

My buddy Ray (chronic on here i think) made me a set and they were pretty sweet. He's too busy to make them these days though. Now that TSS is out of business, I don't believe there's anyone making them.

ASCO ?
slammedcoupe: (2012-12-10 22:44:29)
do you think its worth making a few batches?
or do people here prefer wheel hop and a decent ride?lol

They're only really useful if you're running a solid differential mount I think. (or is it necessary with a solid diff mount, but optional with a stock/poly one?)
I'm not sure how much interest you'd get from it. If anything we can probably talk to Zach or Kyle and see if we want to add them to the ASCO product line.

that would be awesome. i will get some prototypes made for my car and then go from there!

Yeah I have 100 of them made and on the shelf. Was looking to not sell them til our mount was completed. Didn't see the point in releasing them until we could offer a kit.

Hah
And yes to run solid bushings but not the diff mount is just as dumb as running a solid diff mount with soft bushings…
slammedcoupe: (2012-12-18 15:08:15)
ahh shit i missed the boat then eh,
how much are yours going for?

When will these be for sale?
zachary.ard: (2012-12-21 20:02:52)
Well beings that it appears people don't necessarily want to wait for the mount, I'll get them posted for sale sometime this week coming - probably after the Christmas craziness.

Thanks. Im rebuilding a rear subframe with all new bushings and a camber mod next week for the 86 drag car. :-D

I know some of you guys had asked - so I went ahead and did a special pre-buy.
These will ship immediately - just pre-buy because they arent on the website yet.
