Hey Pattie,

I just found something out regarding your concern if these are VB&P rods. A fellow forum member pointed out that his looked the same but were from mid america.

I just did a quick search and lo and behold


How the H did ecklers send these when VB&P smart strruts were ordered.

I think I have to go to ecklers to sort this mess out. There is nothing you can do for me. Sorry I called you out on it.

Does anyone know who supplies mid america with their adjustable struts?

Now the kit I installed came with the new center bracket with the revised pivot locations, this unit is a clearly a part of the vb&p kit. The mid america kit doesn't come with a bracket, this must explain why there are no shims for the poly ends (inside the camber bracket). the rods were packaged in a cellfoam box, the bracket was packaged in a small box by itself, and had, which I'm pretty sure of, a VB&P sticker on it

Bout the mach 1 428 cobra jet, it's a 1969 you can tell by the add on fake vents on the rear quarters

In the pic of the 72 trans am 455HO and the 80 turbo formula (only 1300 made) you can see the mach 1 also that's why I posted them

Thank you for your post on this when finding out it was not our part. If you cannot get any results from Ecklers, let me know and we will try and help you out as best we can, someway, somehow.

Keep me posted on your progress.
