GI: Adjustable Sway Bar End Links

Edit - Scroll down to Post #10 for GROUP BUY information

-----------------------

Original Thread is over on the "other" forum...
http://www.msprotege.com/vbb225/show...hp?t=123671622

hey guys, i have been in contact with Steve over at Gearhead's Garage about getting some adjustable sway bar end-link made up for my car. he has told me that it would be better if he could get a bunch made up at the same time, to help improve the costing. i wanted to post this up here to see how much interest there was in some of these from a different supplier. (as opposed to the AWR links) i have sent him lengths for the MP3 / Mazdaspeed end-links

cost for these is going to be about $75 per set, and he said he's looking for someone in southern california for a test fit session. (free fitting and discount on the parts)

here are a couple of links to the miata sets he has available. the protege links would be similar in design, but longer as needed.

What about AWR endlinks that Ken sells? No good?

i thought these might be an alternative - a little different joint design. these end-links get good reviews on the miata.net forum, and AWR makes a miata set, too.

Oh I see. Well I'd be in if I hadn't already purchased a set of AWR ones .. but if these prove to be less noisy I'll definitely switch.

let's also throw this out there as a possibility.....

if we can get a group buy together, these can possibly be had for a little less than the stated $75 - i don't have a number for the discount yet, but i want to know who's willing to put up the cash for these.

for reference - the AWR links go for $70 per set

$75 for all four corners? that's cheaper than OEM ones (at discounted price even)

sorry, that would be per axel set, front set or rear set, not car set.

ok, guys, spread the word - this is now a GROUP BUY thread (Mods - can you change the thread title?)

if we can get 10 full sets, front and rear, sold, price will be $120 shipped. so, start the list....
1. njaremka - front and rear
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.

i have also changed the thread on the "other"forum to reflect this group buy, so we don't have to have 10 full sets sold just on this forum. (just 10 total) the first ten kits will be ready to ship the first week in june. payment details are not finalized yet, but i will keep all informed.

also, steve (at gearhead garage) really wants to get a test fit before he sends out any kits to customers, to make sure he has the sizing correct and everything fits right. so, anyone in the southern california area that might be interested will get free installation and a better deal on the parts. (too bad for me)

any questions post them up - i'm sure i'm missing something....

i might have posted too soon for an actual group buy, as he's still doing his test fitting. i hope to have firm numbers when they are ready to go. (hopefully within the next week)
