So, the other day i found the need to have a threaded bung that would fit inside a 1.5" OD .120 wall DOM tube. I searched and searched and found out that NOBODY sells one...

--------------------------------------------

Shoulda gave me a call. We've had them for years......

Ballistic has them as well for 12.99 for 1.5" OD, 11.99 for the 1.25 OD bars. Those AVS prices seem steep! Ballistics are by far the nicest I've used, they have the extra 'meat' on them like MMWs do, so thats a plus. Hopefully the prices are close!

Edit..just saw taylors pricing on these...thats gonna be tough to beat. Rod Ends and Tube Adapters is pretty much all i buy from Ballistic so you may be getting some biz in that regard if u have good rod end pricing as well.

Ballistic actually does not make that size any more. I had called about it nearly a month ago , and they said it was a size that was not popular, and they stopped making. However, they could make a special batch for me at the price of 19$ each, for 4 of them.

I saw the AVS ones as well, on the site it just says.. for 1.5 bars.... Nothing about wall thickness, i had just figured they were for the normal .250 wall tube.... like everyone else...., so that combined with the crazy steep price on them, i just turned away.

Joel, if you need some let me know. You will suprised at the deal i can cut if you will by a minimum of 10 at a time. BTW, i have all those sizes programed, and im working on the same stuff for 1/2-20 tpi and 5/8-18 tpi.

Hit me up for your rod ends as well, im sure i can do what you need price wise on them too. I know i beat ballistics pricing on them.

Sounds good man, I hadnt ordered that size from ballistic, just saw it was on their site.
jeebus @ mmw   +1y
I got ya, i only needed a few of them, so i was going to just order them instead of spend all the time to setup a program for them and what not.... but now im glad i did.

I also am writing new programs for High Misalignment spacers as well, so i should be able to start killing on those prices as well here soon.

hey taylor got the extended control arms bolted up today... again i wanted to say thanks and give you some praise. 1.5 hours and both control arms were swapped out and i had done the alignment! Done and done! they were perfect looking and fitting!

jeebus @ mmw   +1y
Awesome!

Glad you like them. Did you by chance get any installed pics of the arms?

Small update with some pics.

here are a few of the caps ive machined for the new MMW S-10 V3 control arms, I will program anything you want for these caps, these are just a customers choice on a few.





this is a set of Jeebus Joint C-10 arms that im doing for a customer that have a stainless insert in them, to add some look to the upper arm. I love the color and how these turned out. The standard C-10 arms do not have that kind of insert into them, but just like any of my arms, i will do any custom addition you want!





this is a set of arms for a new body dodge dakota. customer wanted a custom Mopar logo worked into the arm. I like how it turned out.



Last little update is the parts im making for a Dodge Ram project for Marck Stoute. the lime turned out great, and looks really nice in person.
