I've been putting off ordering your strut bars until I got my engine completed, but this is just too good of a deal to pass up. Put me down for a set. I'll get the money out to you guys this weekend.

 

Thanks guys!

[Rusky]

Sounds good guys.  I think I will be down for a set.  What if I were to order shifter boots at the same time?

 

Let me know.

 

And props for a quality product at reasonable price.

[ESIrType?]

Sounds good guys.  I think I will be down for a set.  What if I were to order shifter boots at the same time?

 

Well Rusky, how about I take $5 of anyone of my boots or $10 my boot package. How does that sound? And I'll ship it all out together.

 

Thanks,

 

Shawn

I need a front set.  I have the stedebani stuff but it doesn't fit over the plenum on  my mpi so it looks like your raised design will solve that problem for me.

 

thanks, sign me up

 

edit: ok in my excitement I jumped the gun a bit.  I see that a full set appears to be all that's available right now.  that's fine, but here's my question.  Do you guys know (via test fitting) if this bar will bolt to the top of the stedebani camber plates in the front.  Here's a look at how they sit.  The towers for the stedebani bar are integral to the camber plate so I anticipate mounting issues with your bar.  If your bar is adjustable I wouldn't be surprised if it fit my setup which would mean I could just use a front bar, and since the stedebani stuff includes firewall triangulation bars also that would probably be the most cost effective for me.  Don't know if you can sell me just a bar or not, but it never hurts to ask.

Chip,

 

Ill see what I can come up with for you.

also forgot to add the pic.  Here it is, maybe you're already familiar or have a set for measurement.  that would be sweet, but if not let me know.  I had taken some measurements and if your bar is adjustable by a 1/4 inch on each side and within a 1/2 inch in length I figure it'll work.  Don't know what size bolt hole is in it though.  The stedebani bar is quite large, the bolts I mean.

edit: oh and that yellow shift boot on the right in the row of 4 pics is hot man.  I don't know why I haven't gotten one of those from you yet but I want it to come with whatever I end up buying for the strut bar issue.  Just tell me where to send how much money and I'll be on it.  I don't mind if I have to pay a little more or can't be included in the gp.  If the measurements are the same, on the strut bar length I'll buy your whole set, and get a bent/raised bar, then sell the set with my straight stedebani bar since people without mpi don't need a raised bar.  the stedebani bar is adjustable by quite a bit and the bolt holes could be shimed I think.  anyway, going golfing now.

I've seen a few pictures before of the ST bars. I have never seen one in person and don't have the measurements either.

What do you mean about 1/2" of adjustability?

Ours are adjustable for more or less tension. In anycase, I'm sure we can work this out.

I believe Steb's tri-bars connect to the main bar, right? Our tri-bar connects to the mounting plate near the stud closest to the fenders.

Our bar could be drilled, tap and have a heli coil inserted to adapt Steb's tri-bars.

Give me a few days, I'll see what I can come up with. If you give us the lenght you need, we will cut it to that length. Also if you need it bend, we'll go from there and work things out.

 

Also, there's no need to sell you a whole set, we can get you what you need without all the extras. This should keep costs down for you.

 

I'm glad you like that boot, I think it's a really nice looking boot to. Someone from the eastern part of Pa bought that one and is the only one to date made.

The turn out for this GP is faster than I expected.

I'm thinking about adding a few bars at this price. At this moment, I'm only thinking, I need to discuss it with my brother before anything is final.

 

Thanks for the great turnout guys,

 

Shawn

Thanks,

[Gary]

I PP'd my $.

[tonytsi]

Put me down for one.

[ESIrType?]

I wanted to update you guys and let you know what's going on.

 

Before the inital GP I ordered enough aluminum for the sets. Well since then I have stop at my suplier 7-10 times. The problem is that they do not stock the aluminum, what they do is order it from their main store 70 miles away. Anyways after being told it would be in by a certian date, a few times, it wasn't. So they found out why they weren't receiving it. The problem was the main store's computers were off and they had a total of 0 aluminum tube in stock. They reordered about 3 weeks ago and I have been stopping in 2-3 times a week to see if it was in yet. We as of yesterday their main store still didn't have it.

What I am going to do is look for another supplier. My current supplier is the closest I know of within 70 miles. I'll see what I can come up with for next week.

 

Please forgive us for the delay, we're doing what we can to resolve this issue and get your sets out to you asap.

 

Thanks,

 

Shawn

[ESIrType?]

Ok, great news!! The aluminum will be in tomorrow!!! The aluminum I was told would definately be in last week, well as of today it wasn't in. I was told it's in the warehouse in Erie, Pa (70 miles north) and it will be in tomorrow (12/3)! This has been the hold up on getting the sets out. The manager at my supplier called and was chewing someone out about this while I was there. This aluminum problem is not my suppliers fault or mine, but purchasings fault. Reguardless Mike and I are terribly sorry to keep you guys waiting. We will be shipping the sets out shortly.

 

Thanks and sorry again guys,

 

Shawn

Hey Shawn

 

YOU KNOW you can take your time with mine.... Besides I will NOT be in town from Dec. 15th till Jan 10th so you can PUSH my ship date as far back as you want and give way to the other guys that may want them sooner.

 

So I OFFICIALLY give UP my place in line.

 

Thanks for offering these to us.

So anyhow... is it safe to ask about the STATUS of the "PROJECT" we had been discussing ??  ;D

 

Talk to you later

Oscar

Thanks Oscar, you're a good man. I'll time it so I can get you your goods when you get back. I appreciate your offer!

Also, I'll get further into the "project" today for you.

 

Thanks again,

 

Shawn

[Gary]

Mine just showed up at the door.  Killer design!  Thanks!

Thanks Gary, we both appreciate the feedback! We spend countless hours designing these, not to mention the many prototypes.

Again, sorry for the wait!

 

Thanks, Shawn

[tonytsi]

I can't wait to get mine. I will get it powder coated,and lettered.

 I know it will be mine, but do you have a preference Shawn on the lettering

style. If so can you give me a sample?

I can't wait to see it powedcoated! Do you plan on powdercoating the bars too? We do etch our logo into the aluminum if this helps you get an idea of what the lettering is like.

I meant to comment on the bars too. They are just plain awesome! I was extremely happy to see that the quality is equal to or better than any manufactured strut bar I've seen. I'm really impressed. Great job guys!

 

Shawn I apologize, I meant to get in touch with you a couple weeks ago. I've got an email heading your way now.

[chiplee]

and I'm still interested in just a bar, need measurements though right?
