Jake, I agree. Beautiful pieces but... ..... :eek:
 
I think everyone that has a CNC machine thinks it's a ticket to big $. If you notice whether its wheel's, control arms or any specialty piece that is made from a CNC machine costs big bucks. I understand the high cost of the machine itself but you cant make the investment back all at once!



I'm not intentionally pointing this out at KORE, I have nothing against them or their products. Just pointing out the CNC cost relationship. No flames necessary
 
ya not to mention you dent have to have a CNC to build the parts you just have to email a company that does that all day long the cad folder. cuts costs alot. as for 2gs for arms it makes it worth my wile to buy some billet and start widdling on my old brigport its not like they have any really complicated work on those arms. well exept the fancy name
 
I'm sure Kent is sending this work to a Job Shop. Shop rate here in California is $65. 00-$100. 00 an hour. If I were to bid that job I would bid no less than 3 hours minimum per arm. That's provided that it was a long run production job,let's say a 100 parts(25 sets). Less parts,more money. That excludes cost of material,anodizing,packaging,end bearings,etc. That is pure machine time. I don't think the price is that outrageous. Would I buy them?Probably not. I have the older T/Rex system and it works and handles the washboard roads of Baja just fine.
 
Awww c'mon guys... We all know that in a couple of months, everyone will have these and everyone will be raving about how good they are and how they're worth every penny. Heck, we'll even be talking about how good of a deal they actually are for the price considering the cost of materials and production, and how we should have bought them at $2000 instead of $2650 once they catch on and there is a price increase in the next year to cover the rising cost of production. . DEJA VU all over again. :D
 
Pimp my Cummins!



No offense guys, but I don't think their target market for these include most of us on this board. I don't pretend to know who or where their target is, but I do know that there's a lot of people out there that would drop that kind of money without blinking. Most of which probably buy a new truck sight unseen, then have it shipped to the customizing shop for 3 months while they do a frame-off makeover.



Pretty cool that stuff like that exists though. Keep up the good work, Kent!
