VANsteel!! Thank You guys They took my old crusty trailing arms to better than new.+Threw in some small parts that they could have left out knowing that I would need to order them later. AND these guys know how to pack . In the past I have received shipments that looked they were drop kicked from the space station. These could have come ok if dragged behind the big brown truck from Florida.

Nothing but good dealings with the guys down there, even with the Canadian / USA core and shipping back and forth bits, everything looked after and exactly as promised, no surprises, no hidden gotchas, no nothings.

They are a great company to deal with. I have and will continue to order a lot of stuff from them in my rebuild process.

They are local for me. Artie, Danny and the rest of the crew do great work. They picked up my frame and suspension components, refitted them and powder coated everything and returned it all to me. Jerry

I'll throw in two cents...they've been fantastic. They've been there throughout my project and now the car is 100% VS suspended. I actually had a chance to meet the guys at Carlisle last year. They couldn't be more hospitable.
