Okey dokey. Yup, there wer more than I figured, but none has paid yet, so we will see. I will make extras, but give me some time to get it set up. All who ask/asked for sets will get sets, eventually.

ArtechnikA, I believe that these bolts are the 12.9 carbon steel, not stainless. If I had said they were stainless before, I appologize for the missinformation. They are still better than the orriginal, but they are NOT stainless.

If this matters to anyone, let me know when I PM you about the bill and I will take you off of the list.

This next batch are the correct length, 45mm, too. As always, I checked with my supplier about my specs and these will provide perfect service.

At present, I need to make 11 more sets.....word sure got out on this. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif)

On a last note, I don't use paypal due to my thin proffit margin. I do accept checks and MOs, though. I'll be contacting the 1st 15 set buyers.

Just a suggestion - let people pay the extra $.75 if they want to use paypal. It might be a lot easier than collecting checks.

Mike, 2 sets for me, but you already knew that (even if I didn't tell you). (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

CV flanges can and do fall off.

Anthony,
I appreciate the suggestion, but getting t\the money out of paypal is a PITA that I don't feel like doing. I have a hole in my account for fronting the 120 bolts that I just bought, and other supplies. Checks work best for me and require less work on my end.

For those of you who have gotten the first orders in, I encourage you to post your oppinions here to help people that are on the fence move either way. I wanna here if you like/dislike anything. Could I improve? Ya'll happy?

I have little doubt they'll be just fine.

Check's in the mail! It was hard work too... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

No problem, it's your deal and you can certainly do whatever is easiest for you.

He only had 15 sets Karl. By the time you posted, there weren't any left (provided everyone before you actually paid).

Felix,
I have been swamped with work so I havent made all of the sets yet. I will be making them Sun night and shipping them on Tues (I need to package and get supplies). I have over 180 bolts to make so it takes a bit. If I haven't cashed your check yet, then I haven't made your bolts yet. I don't like cashing checks before the product is done.
I hope that I am not inconveniencing you, or anyone else. If there are rush orders (like, "I need them to put my car together by XX date) just let me kow and I will prioritize them.
Thanks for your patience (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

Quarl,
I will start a second list from those of you on this list that didn't get any. You will be on it, and I will let you know. Again, if there are rush needs, let me know.

Mike,

My earliest need will be next weekend so don't sweat it. Do you have any recommended wiring techniques? Link or doc would be great...

Synthesisdiv (davidr) posted this image in the original thread; it shows the essentials - you loop the wire in such a way as the tension tightens both bolts.

Carroll Smith's "Prepare To Win" will tell you about it; everybody preparing a competition car should have this book.

proper stainless 0.032" safety wire and a pair of safety wire pliers (all the race-prep places have them) will make the job lots easier, but it can be done with small vise-grip pliers and care.

Just got mine. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif) Found a how-to link on the net: Safety Wiring

Hope I make enough progress to install these...
