    Final payment sent.

    BTW how would you go about enlarging the hole on your green bushings to fit my koni yellows?

      You can simply drill them with a press. I wouldn't try to do it in a vise with hand tools. The shaft on the koni is probably 16mm and you could probably get away with a 5/8 inch drill.

        just curious, is there a certain way to ensure the threaded part doesn't loosen? perhaps loctite?

          Yes of course. I am going to likely ship them out either with a small bottle of loctite or do it myself before it leaves the shop. It is a good hold. I made the mistake of tightening one set together as tight as I could by hand, had to use the lathe and a cheater bar just to break it loose.

            Thank you! Just need to find someone with a drill press then.

              5/8" not 9/16". Just measure and check. If you are good with a drill it wont be over sizes. Just be carefull. I can always machine you a set if need be.

              Locked up 4 sets today for the pre orders. Really hoping we hear from the other people to make this a revenue neutral set up.

              Shipping out the ones who have paid already.

              Thank you!

                Are you still missing initial deposits from some people? PM me or Facebook message me the list of those who you're waiting on.

                  Ok thank you! How much would another set of green bushings with a larger hole? I still have the other set I got from you like 2 years ago.

                    If you can measure a set of the koni shafts and I will machine you a set and we can exchange.

                    5 sets shipped out today. Thanks everyone.

                        Shafts yes. Sleeves are the important parts.

                              I still haven't. They're sitting on the floor in my study next to the Ground Control coils. One of these days this summer, hopefully.
