Thanks, just to confirm, when would we expect to recieve them? Do they have enough sets manufactured, or is it just postal time?

Cheers

That's probably the only weak point in the design.


Would self-annealing tape be flexible enough to survive and keep grit out?

Hi folks, I messaged Gon about this and he gave me the OK to post on his GB thread.

I bought a set of these tie rods before christmas for my car. Stupidly, I ordered Mk1a tie rods when I own a Mk1b. I would like to sell my tierods to a Mk1a owner at the group buy price, and then take their place on the group buy and order some Mk1b tierods for myself.

If anyone is interested, please let me know. I can accept paypal and post them to you immediately, or you can come and get them from Letchworth, Hertfordshire.

Cheers!

I will leave Gon to answer questions where possible as one source makes matters uncomplicated, but due to his losing a fight with his dentist, and not finding talking in any way that can be understood, i'll answer the recent queries:

I have some stock right now. I shall be clarifying USA stock tomorrow. The saving offered in the GB comes from volume purchasing and shipping. Towards the end of the GB i shall order the shortfall, ship by FedEx, and plan to ship out to buyers week 2 of February, i.e. within 14 days of the close of the GB.

Half of the GB price.
