sending it back to REDZ, then he sends it to NRG so they can make it bud. I could make it no problems but then everyone would buy the universal kit and then have to buy these to get it to work right.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (UrS0NvS @ Jun 8 2008, 10:29 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>

bolt holes moved 1/2" forward per request



old front bracket rubbed the P.S.hose on the upright part, not anymore!



plenty of room now for the cruise control.



view of top mount from the side of car.



front mount showing all OEM placement used.


I was kind of a "non-believer" of this part when i first looked at it, sorry REDZ. once I got it bolted on and took it for a test drive it made me a true believer. I bounced off of rev limiter at least 3 times in each of 4 stop -n- go's and never once did the car want to veer right changing gears.

the only question left now is: Do I really need to send this back to ABQ. roflmmfao.


I will take this off tomorrow and clean it up real good and send it back to you REDZ, this was a fun little project which made me realize how badly i really need to clean my engine bay.</div>


Awesome man. I told ya! Such a small part, such a big difference.

Those look nice and thick. Can you do me a favor and send me the drawing for it? Might be easier to get them made that way.

Also, maybe we could get a quote from you on how much it'll cost to get these made? We'll send the drawings off to NRG and see what they can do a run of them for, but they get them done overseas and they may take awhile.

If nothing else, getting a short run from you first could help get these out there.

we will have to call NRG to find out what they are running for cad software. we use ME10 at the shop (rather primitive but we are in a transition to move over to softworks).

I can see what my friend at work can do in terms of a run. he in fact helped me redesign the bottom mount tonight since the guy that bent the first one for me bent it the wrong way, had to start over again. the only problem he would have with his small plasma table is the smaller holes get eggshaped so i will drill them out instead of cutting them out, no biggie.

the only thing left i want do is make a small, fancy hole like the universal one has with the cut out triangle to make it a little more flashier, but that is it in terms of anything else.

let me know what you want to do bro or just gimme a call tomorrow.

do I have to send this back to you, roflz? lmao.gif lmao.gif

I'll call up and ask them what they need, drawings, files, or samples. If we get these done through NRG, wait will be longer, but cost should be the same as the other sets they sell. If we do the brackets our selves, prices may be higher.

I hope not, but we'll see.

^^ I didn't get that excited but yeah they look good. lmao.gif

What if someone (me) has a strut bar that bolts to 3 holes? Would a spacer for the third bolt be needed to keep it even?

welp, better late than never I guess, 20 sets ready to go. fing02.gif

I personally apologize for the delay. things at the shop have been totally FUBARED after getting the first R&D done on these. I was going to offer these in a powdercoat but my powdercoater guy basically has no time for it anymore with his new job.

REDZ, lets get a list started on who wants these.

FYI, I can get these sandblasted which will make you overall rattle can results a whole lot better, just let me know in a poll or whatnot and I can get it done no problems.

Next project is in the works right now and will be revealed at ABQ BBQ. Trust me, everyone will be pleased.

offtopic.gif this is the reason while i couldn't work on them as much as I wanted,lol. $150K 17.5cu. yd3 excavator bucket for a hitachi 2600 shovel. 34,580 lbs. and took (19) 50 lb. spools of 1/16" mig welding wire to glue it all together, haha. I lost roughly 21 lbs. sweating over this damn thing and I had two helpers.

Can you get me a set of these so i can compare them with the previous set?

I'm trying to think how we should do this, there's no reason for everyone to pay for S/H 2 times.

Let me talk to Bill first, PM me a price for the entire batch of them, or give me a call today so we can talk.
