Crome Moly Stuff???

[BD-Xtreme]

Just wanted to see what the interest it in Chrome Moly suspension pieces?

We are producing A-arms and Skid Arms.

A-arms will be a stock fit with a nickel finish (looks like chrome)
Skid Arms will also be a stock fit with a nickel finish

Availabe to ship in December, I should have on the website sometime this weekend?

They peel off 8 lbs with both sets.

Just an FYI out 162 skid with chrome moly, Ti Bolts and inner idlers weighed in at 35.2 lbs....

Just looking for thoughts on the new product?

i would be interested in some, price?

 

[BD-Xtreme]

Sorry forgot to put that in first post. Well it looks like most are in the $6-800 range just for the front arms with no finish, how about $995.95 for the both sets?

I will be pricing separate, haven't gotten that far yet.

Are these parts on the 430 lb M-1200???

Got any pics of that skinny beast?

 

[BD-Xtreme]

Yes they are, they are on their way back from shows now, I am going to try and take pics and post this weekend. I will also list the weight chart this week sometime.

The chrome moly items look good! nice and shiney (if you like that sort of thing) don't tell anyone we are working on spindles as well.....

The M-8 Turbo was 430 DRY
The M-12 was 426 DRY...this one is wet now, antifreeze, 3 +/- gas 453

Fastlanes are unpainted, aren`t they???

 

[orange06m7]

yeah i think they came un painted

I've been waiting for someone to make replace parts for the stock rear for years! So good on ya! How about light weight skags? Why not!? And yes the F-ing spindles are ridiculous! Shave 'em, drill holes through them, hollow 'em out or something! And $995 for both sets seems reasonable. BTW I have the tunnel kit on my 07 m1k and it;s awesome and cleaner than the A/C 09 version!

Your saying that your aarms and rear susp arms are losing 8lbs off the factory stuff? Is that with titanium bolts or not? Would you ever consider making these out of titanium? Pics would be great.

Mike, I'm looking for a #14 in chrome-moly with the nickel finish.

The arms only, not including the Ti-Bolts I will have pics this weekend! We thought about the Ti arms but too much $$$

ditto on the price, paint is pretty cheap, Holz is also much lower:
"2005-08 41" M Series A-Arm Kit $475.00"


Definately interested, but only if prices stay low, that's one big thing I like about BD-X, reasonable prices.

isn't that peice already aluminum? Why would you want it out of chromoly?

Fabcraft A-Arms $443 painted silver.

Tons of a-arms out there, but I like idea of the rear suspension stuff if priced right.

 

[sidehill]

One more thing on the rear, how about some lightweight bushings along with the ti bolts and chrome moly.

Because I've already bent the h*77 out of the aluminum ones on both my M8s. So for me, I'm going to buy aftermarket steel or make my own before the snow flies. The ball is in BDX's court; time is money.

careful........what happens when you make that stronger? something has to give, its easy to straighten a aluminum tube in the back country but its hard to find a welder just a thought

$995 is for front a-arms and rear skid in nickel finish. Thats pretty good as far as I see it. They looked great at the Puyallup show!!!!
