I just checked and it went through but didn't show up in my Venmo account till 7pm - I went to the PO at about 3pm so it hadn't hit my account yet. I'll get it shipped out ASAP.

If you're not listed...
My priority mail flat rate boxes will be arriving tomorrow according to tracking so everyone that gets their payment in before tomorrow when I go to the PO will get mounts shipped.
Everyone in line for the first 50 sets should have a PM with payment instructions. If I don't receive payment in 10 business days I will put those sets back up for grabs.
And yes - additional sets were made in case anything goes wrong in shipping, etc. I anticipate that those who have...
They had "drawings" - remember they last made these in 2005. They had to create new tooling.
And as Third notes - it's only there to facilitate centering.
I installed a set on my rear A1R cab latch to evaluate and I'm pleased with the results over the last few weeks.
The locating ring on the bottom of the large mount is a bit shorter than the original, but this does not affect their operation. It's only there to center them during installation...
If you want to do local pickup if you are in Portland you could stop by my shop and pay cash or card, etc. Or I'll be accepting PayPal for shipping USPS flat-rate once I get the logistics of that figured out and which boxes and such are going to fit the job.
The mounts are shipping from the manufacturer tomorrow morning! Shipping from the manufacturer is going to add $1.50 per mount, so $6 per set. They are coming from the other side of the USA to me (OR) so I'm guessing at least a week transit time. Then I'll have pics of the final products, etc.
She never called me back and I haven't called them again. I'll try to find a minute tomorrow. It's hard because I'm short staffed at work (tech's out sick) and they are east coast so I have to call before 2pm
I called this morning and was told that production was at lunch and I would get a call back but that did not occur today. She did say she had a shipping request quote on her desk so that's positive.
Will do. The office lady I spoke with said the 14th :rolleyes:
I'll check with them next week and see if there's an updated ETA to ship. Sadly the delays are out of my hands and probably mostly out of their hands too with raw material availability and supply chain backups, etc. I'm confident we...
No. You can likely purchase tubing of the appropriate size or if absolutely necessary these can be turned out on any lathe in short order.
Vulcanized rubber requires equipment generally far beyond that found in the average shop and that's what this group buy is here to address. If you need...
I called my supplier and the mounts are scheduled to ship out on November 14th. They said all production has been delayed due to supply chain backups and raw material shortages. So the original estimate of 4-6 weeks turned into 16 weeks. Such is the way of the world these days.
And yes there...
Additional sets were ordered and I presume some will also remain unclaimed one shipping commences. I haven't heard back from my email requesting an updated ETA as of yet. I have paid 50% of the production costs and the other 50% is due upon completion but that has yet to occur,
As with most...
Production is supposed to be underway or in the queue. They require 50% payment to begin production and that bill was paid on Aug 5th. I am waiting for word that they are ready to ship and ask for the rest of their money. They are in New York and I'm in Oregon..... I don't have an exact ETA. I...
