I just bought a set from ebay. $110.00 with shipping. I'll let you know if I get bent over. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif)
What do I look for to tell if they're junk? Mike T |

Are they made in Germany and do they have a cotter pin or a nylon locking nut. |

I just recently bought a set off Ebay from a seller "importbaron" for around $90. He claims they're made in Germany. The photo in his auction shows castellated nuts but I'm going to have to check mine when I get home tonight (haven't put them on yet). I'll report back the name of the manufacturer too if anyone's interested?
Anybody had any experience / know the quality of these? |

since this subject comes up at least once a week, the thread with that discussion can't be very old - days tops. a search will turn it up for you... Import Baron "now" sells Lemforder - $195 ... Import Baron Lemforder with the Euro exchange rate, this is a particularly sucky time for buying EU stuff. OTOH - 356's and early 911's are flying outta the US back to der Vaterland by the container load ... |
