You should have 2 poly bushings and 1 sleeve per arm. Call me up and I'll send you some.

Shipping from the zip code you have on your sig, it should cost you about $45 to ship both back. I would reuse the boxes I sent you. Yes I can install your poly bushing at no extra charge. Our turn around time is normally 3-5 days. Now that we've been getting a very good response to this thread the turn around time is about 5-7 days. You can give me a call and I'll write you up and get you going.

All of our rebuilt parts are bolt on parts. You take it out of the box and put it on your car. Normally we give a month for the cores to return. If you need longer let me know and we'll work with you. If you purchase a poly rebuild kit and you want us to install the poly bushings thats perfectly fine and there is no additional cost.

This offer is good until March 31st. We realize that not everyone can do this right away so we are giving people a little bit of time.

We have boxes made for us and the t-arms have foam packed around them.

Is the e-brake linkage mounted the same on the offsets as on the stock ones or is it relocated?

I'm very interested in a complete offset pair for my 69!

Post here, email or IM me. Thx

E-brake bracket is mounted on top of the t-arm. Here's a pic of the offset t-arm with my 30 spline axels.

b/c if you get offsets, we don't care if we get your orginal arms or not. If you want to pay a higher core thats fine w/me :D

OK. I'm liking this sale but I am looking for a different combination. If I'm going to do it I might as well do it right the first time. What I was thinking about is the offset trailing arms. I'm waffling between the single and double. I like the idea of the extra 1" clearance to the spring end on the double. Do you sell the narrower spring to go with them? Will the sway bar be a clearance issue? I would also like the high performance half shafts and axle kit. I'm thinking of upgrading to the 12 bolt diff (Tom's Differentials). Are these axles compatible with that modification? I want slotted and cross drilled rotors (mostly for looks) so I would not need the rotors unless you have a source for those also. Do you think you can come up with a package for me?

I think we'll be abl to work something out. Is this the kit you are talking about.


http://www.vansteel.com/index.cfm?fu...&SubGroup=1878

Yes I do have shortened springs. You can run a rear sway bar w/it but it depends on the size tire you choose. I do have slotted rotor but we do not carry drilled rotors. Also w/this 30 spline kit. If you can wait a couple of months, Tom and I are working on making the 1/2 shafts out of carbon fiber w/the aluminum ends. Right now those shafts wiegh 20 pounds each and you will be able to save a lot of weight by going to the carbon. He's having the ends made and I'm making the shafts. He will test them out on his cars.

Right now I'm in Houston doing the Corvettes at Houston show. I will return on the 25th. You can call me than if you would like to, to talk about everything.

Yes, that is the setup I was looking at. If you are working with the folks at Toms differentials I'm looking foreward to what you come up with. I imagine the final product should be pretty bulletproof. Don't you alreadt offer a cf half shaft? Seems like I have seen something about them. I'll be waiting to see what you can do but I don't want to miss out on the special pricing on the offsets.
