Hi Guys, Well, Darin finally had to open his mouth and start with the BS. He is well known for it locally. I was going to stick to the high road in this whole matter, but I'm not going to sit here and take this without responding. First, maybe you should look back to the original thread...

Hi guys - a little info for you: Darin and I are planning on three brackets at the moment. One stock drop non-adjustable, one stock drop with adjustment for small lifts, and one with adjustment for the 3" drop (5"lift) pitman arm. I may also do a 4 1/2 drop ( for SJ 7" lift extreme drop...

Coalsmoke, I apologize if my last sentence came across the wrong way. We have had a few "discussions" regarding patents along the way, and I guess the subject raises my hackles a bit. Seems like some folks don't believe us. I wasn't implying *you* were a vulture; just that they are out...

Regarding patents: New patent applications are not disclosed (by the patent office) to the public for at least a period of 18 months after application. Add to that the one year International treaty period for other countries and it could be quite a while before your search comes up with...

Nowel, We hope you get better soon! Our prayers are with you. Marv & Yvonne

Regarding gassers, The stiffeners will fit them also. I'd like to say that we are now switching over to NTN bearings. :) And, the four metric mounting bolts and washers are now all yellow zinc-dichromate plated. They are the same finish you have all probably seen used on grade 8...

Regarding that clank when you turn the wheels - check to make sure your steering shaft isn't loose where it enters the bottom end of the steering column. Also watch for movement at the upper end of your track-bar. Check those lower shock mount bolts by watching very closely for movement while...

Hmmm... Just speculating at this point, but it would seem he was well aware of our design since absolutely everything is different in some way. To me, this says that he is trying to get around any patents by changing everything to some degree. Such as: Round vs square tubing, 4 wrench flats...

A quick note: It will be a while yet on the track bar. Our first priority is the DSS. Darin is quite busy making sure the orders get filled. We have a prototype track bar setup on a truck getting a thorough beating. However, I am still working out the design details on the production...

Pit Bull has all the info correct (including postal code). mpjmpj: Yes, it is patented. DCMille290: I've PM'd you. Later, Marv

Hi guys, John pointed out something important and I want to repeat it. Just as John stated, make sure that the bearing flange mounting bolts are the last thing you tighten. The location of the brace with respect to the sector shaft will drift around a bit as the four mounting bolts are...

Hi guys, I'm just posting to let you know that anyone that already sent a check for the old price has been shipped a bracket already. No one has to send any extra money. We have enough old style left to cover the checks that come for the original price. The price was raised slightly...

Hi guys, We have tracked a 2500 2wd down to measure and will have a bracket for those very soon. All 4x4 brackets do fit however.

Hi guys, A bunch of them should be showing up right away. I want to mention that we had to punch slots over our nice lasered bolt holes on this first batch. :mad: These trucks apparently vary quite a bit. The slots are now laser cut too. We realized we also had to order...

Speaking of tire sizes and speedos, a few years ago I wrote a little program for fun to calculate MPH, RPM, Tire size, OD ratio, and axle ratio. If you give it any of the 4 you know, it gives you the missing one. It's totally free for the download so I hope this isn't considered...
