Group buy on active toe eliminator kits?

[s1ngletracker]

****UPDATE*****
I am asking $145 for my kit. It comes with 2 1045 steel slugs that are pressed/hammered into your trailing arms and then welded, 2 heavy duty chromoly teflon-injected rod ends with jam nut, and 4 stainless steel spacers so that they sit properly in the mounting tabs with the stock bolts.

I am having 5 sets made. This price is only good for the introductory run. I may need to re-evaluate, and I might sell nationally for a higher price.

Hey all, I'm working with a machine shop to have active toe eliminator kits made.

These will be for a 1g AWD DSM.

They will be similar to the Jay Racing kit, but at least a good bit cheaper:

Jay Racing Kit (www.jayracing.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=54_70&products_id=207))

Also a better design IMO. It won't require welding (though I'd still recommend it) and will come with a high quality, heavy duty heim style rod end and spacers to install into the stock location with the stock eccentric bolt.

Would anyone be interested in a set? I don't have pricing right now, as I'm still figuring it all out. It will be reasonable though. Just not sure how many people care to have something like this - just want to gauge interest right now. If there is no interest, I'll just make a couple sets for myself and buddies.

I'm in the market for a set right now, depends on the timing for me.

I am looking at picking up a kit as well. What is the difference/improvement over the jay racing kit? How will this secure in the hole if welding is not required?

[s1ngletracker]

You'll use the stock bolt that was used to secure the stock link inside the trailing arm. But honestly, if you want it welded and don't have a welder, just bring the arms to me and I can weld it for you.

That's one of the major improvements. Because of that the insert is bigger and will be more secure inside the TA. It will be a press-fit, my intention is to have it sized so you can just pound it in with a 5lb sledge or the like.

I may be interested based on price, as I wasn't in the market before this thread.

I've got my old Taboo speed shop ATE kit that I've had for years, I'm installing it this spring. Seeing as my stock stuff is pretty sloppy after all these years, this should be a real improvement to any 1G. I know the serious drag guys and wheel turners have been doing it for years.

[s1ngletracker]

Yeah, I think the toe-in induced by the stock links are going to really put a hindrance on a proper handling track/autox car, i'm planning on tracking my car a few times this summer.

I will say, getting the stock links out is a massive pain. I'm convinced the best option is just hook your ball joint hole to a strap and something solid, and use a come-along attached to the toe link to yank it out.

Having a preliminary set made, should be done today. I'll figure out what needs refinement and correct that before I do a run for everyone else.

I've got my old Taboo ...

Man, there's a name I've not heard in a while.

If you can get your 2nd production run at least 12 hours before the Spring Cruise, I am defiantly down as I'll have my rear end out for re-bushing.

thanks!

[s1ngletracker]

oh yeah, definitely before then. I'll let you know. First prototypes are done as of today!

Nice work, sadly I have a set of Jay racings elims here, but i got them cheap and was planning on having it all done last year.

Kudos for getting DSM stuff made.
