SteeevO Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 (edited) After seeing all the interest in these HD Suspension Links, i've got everything inplace to have them made & I wanted to post this for those that weren't following the original post that's inspiring the completion of these links. The Rugged Rocks HD Suspension Links are constructed of beefy 1.75"x.281 wall DOM cut to match the length of your stock length links at it's shortest adjustment. Adjustments are easily done due to the opposite threading used on each end for each Johnny Joint. The HD Links are powdercoated black and include 4 high quality rebuildable Johnny Joints by Currie Entersrises made special to fit the stock width, 2-3/8" wide suspension brackets; and include zerk fittings for easy lubrication. I got pricing all worked out and i'm taking pre-orders to get things moving. I'm looking for 6 orders over the next 2 weeks ending the pre-orders on 2/18. if the 6 pre-orders are met i'll order the materials and get started at the machine shop etc. we're looking at about 4 weeks from the 18th (~3/18) to having the links shipped out. if the pre-order minimum is not met then everyones $ will be refunded on 2/20 I'm offering Upper and Lower links for the R50 and WD21. you can order them here: HD Pathfinder Links The original thread is here: HD Pathfinder Suspension Link Info Edited February 18, 2009 by SteeevO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MY1PATH Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 so if the pre-orders don't get filled will you not be offering the links or will it just take longer for you to get them done up due to lack of funds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteeevO Posted February 4, 2009 Author Share Posted February 4, 2009 if the pre-orders don't get filled, then the links may never be offered. it just depends on the demand. even with as much as i'd like to just pay for them up front out of pocket and have them ready to ship in a few weeks, I just can't. hopefully we'll get enough pre-orders to get this going by the 18th, on the flip side... if i get the 6 pre-orders before the 18th then i'll start production ahead of schedule.

SteeevO Posted February 6, 2009 Author Share Posted February 6, 2009 Thanks Alex! Yup I just need 3 more Making the R50 links is really no prob afterall. and I'll determine how many of each to make after the pre-orders are done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoneZ Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 I would order some now but really need to get tires first hoping I can get them next month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexrex20 Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 if this first pre-order set of 6 isn't met, this item may never be offered ever again. we only need 3 more orders (R50 or WD21). come on everyone!!!! what happened to everyone that was "very interested" in the feeler thread?

MY1PATH Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 what happened to everyone that was "very interested" in the feeler thread? lol very intersted is not the same as very well paid. but ditto on wanting these made I'm sure more will pre-order by the 18th.

Precise1 Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 what happened to everyone that was "very interested" in the feeler thread? lol very intersted is not the same as very well paid. Pretty much. I'm cut back to a 32 hour work week. I can get by fine but it cuts down on the 'mod the truck' purchases. I'll wait and see where this goes and consider charging them on credit...

SteeevO Posted February 11, 2009 Author Share Posted February 11, 2009 one week down, one to go. Only 3 more preorders needed BTW when i say 3 pre-orders, i mean 3 pairs of links. so if one person buys a pair of uppers and a pair or lowers, thats 2 pre-orders.

01silvapathy Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 I would really love to get a set of these, but money is not going to come into my bank account until summer So if the preorders are met and you produce them, i will most def buy a set of lowers during the summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexrex20 Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 (edited) anybody else? this very well could be the beginning of a trend of new offerings for the R50s (and WD21s). let's at least give it the opportunity. i think we only need 2 more orders now.

tekazgtr1984 Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 These are for the trailing arms? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexrex20 Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 These are for the trailing arms? yep, our R50s come factory with awesome 5-link rear suspension, and these upgraded rear links (or trailing arms) will make them even more so.

tekazgtr1984 Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Sweet, these custom links are badass indeed! My only concern is, $600USD aside for the links, would be shipping to Canada... That'll probably end up somewhere around $800CAD after exchange and shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
01silvapathy Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Yeah if I was going to get any I would just get the bottom ones, cause wheels and tires come first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tekazgtr1984 Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Yeah, I'm in the same place. 33's and rear shocks are a must first and foremost... I'd just like to help out with this getting this product off to a good start! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteeevO Posted February 12, 2009 Author Share Posted February 12, 2009 It's good to see that there is a good amount of interest for these. I still need atleast 3 more pairs pre-orderd by the 18th.
