I called them today and tried to volunteer my truck to be a true testimonial, but no takers.

I heard they increase your milage by 5 MPG and 300 HP too. ;) ;) :D
 
ok i agree that shop rates are not cheep i charge out 60 an hour here to but come on 3 hours on a cnc you should almost be able to do it on a manual machine in that time the cncs i have run work a hell of alot faster then that that is the point of them they can get stuff done in less time. **** we put more precise parts for injection molds on manual equipment for less. non the less if i had deep pockets i might buy them they are pretty
 
IMHO, no matter how I look at it, KORE's stuff is too expensive for what it is... Ive ridden in a KORE equipped truck, and honestly I wasnt that impressed, in comparison to my stock truck. . I know most of you won't agree with me, but thats ok with me. . I'll stick to a leveling kit if I ever wanna lift, but I don't think that will happen, its a tow rig, not a baja vehicle.

hell you can get a set of billet wheels for less then that price these days and there is alot more work in a set of rims then in 4 control arms and the special spherical bushings can be had from rubicon express for under 50bucks canadian these days so mabe i should get out my hack saw and a tap set and some 2by3 billet and see what i can come up with :D but they are still pretty

For the price you would think the end at the frame would have urethane bushings instead of rubber. The axle end should have urethane instead of these expensive global rotators which will need service, more frequently in dusty conditions. You will need to remove the upper arms to service and unbolt the frame end of the lower link to service. These are overkill, overprice and no one wants to do that kind of maintenance! :--) Sam

So what would every body pay? I think i would pay $500 tops.

Call me ignorant but before I saw the price sheet I was thinking two bills apiece ..... $1K apiece... . WTF!?

I really want the Chase but I can't swallow that $$$$ either ..... I'm waiting for the identical system made by someone else that realizes they'll be able to recoup their sweat equity via VOLUME not MARGIN.

It's amazing. The last time I said that, I was flamed to no end. Everyone that jumped on the KORE bandwagon said they can charge whatever they want.



Fine, Kent. Charge what you want. I just won't be buying it. You must be paying a pretty penny for Bilsteins... because they're available below jobber just about anywhere on the internet and you're trying to get full retail for them.



Sorry man, but your pricing has gone from slightly out of line, to downright obscene.
 
At one point I was considering purchasing products from Kore/DRC. But over 2K for a pair of arms? I cannot justify the cost. Granted there will always be someone who pays for it because they must keep up with the Jones's... it just wont be me. I do not doubt that they are almost sold out, the San Diego market is crazy right now... in the East County alone you see a bunch of trucks lifted 6" plus that never see a dirt road... but they sure look nice... nevermind trying to haul anything in the bed. (must be little man disease!) I know some wont agree, but thats okay. I'm resiliant and the flames won't last forever. Either way, best of luck to you Kore/DRC. just my 2 bits

Tim and I finally agree on something. I've challenged Kore's prices since day one. Way too many $$$$ for what it is.
 
Dang! They look trick on there. You should offer them in various anodized colors. Like blue would be nice. Then make them about 1K$ and I'll take a set. ;)
 
If they're $2k, wouldn't that be $500 per arm since there are 4 arms up front? Like someone else mentioned, those ends can be purchased from Rubicon Express for $40, *if* they're the same size. RE doesn't make those either btw but I know who does. :D http://www.rubiconexpress.com/dynamic/mainpage.asp?folderid=788



Dawg-1, There is a reason a lot of suspension companies don't use urathane. Having urathane bushings at either end will transmit tons of road noise and vibration into the cab. Also, if the urathane is too stiff, you can end up ripping control arm mounts off the axle or frame if you twist the truck up enough. If you don't care about road noise etc, ask Kent to put the Super Flex joints at both ends.
