I didn't see a price on the first page.

How much are they?

 

Update:

I was going to drop off the dampers on Sunday on my day off, but the guy that is painting them is going to Jax for car show.

I am going to try and get them to him as soon as I can

 

Count me in, I will be sending the money threw paypal.

 

Mine arrived yesterday. Will be installing soon.

Thanks for the setting up the group buy.

damn, hope these are ready for SevenStock!

 

Waiting sure does suck!

 

Any ETA on mine?

 

thanks blu received mine, cant wait to install them

 

its very easy to install... i would highly suggest tossing the grease that comes with the dampers and using a lithium grease instead.

 

Yeah..I know it's a piece of cake, but there are usually one or two little things that can make anything go smoother. Good tip on the Lithium, I'll remember that. I'm already thinking of ways to make the apparent gap not so noticeable, but won't really be able to tell until I get them and see.

 

The install took all of about 15-20 mins with prep time. Definitely go with lithium grease, the stuff they give you does royally suck. Pick up some good thread lock fluid too. Ideally assemble them the night before using the thread lock fluid so it can set overnight. Other than that, it is pretty straight forward.

Also I'm working with a buddy who owns a machine shop to see if we can fab a better bracket for the hood. We're hoping to come up with a thinner version made of Aluminum, so the gap is even less noticeable.

If you switched to a thinner bracket, wouldn't you want to go to a stronger metal? 1/8th inch aluminum is not exactly the strongest thing in the world.

 

Why make a bracket at all? If you have a buddy with a shop why not try welding a ball joint the the existing hood bracket?

 

The piston are not long enough to reach the OE bracket without dramatically lowering the hood while it was up.


As far as using aluminum, I can get 5083 grade aluminum and at 1/8 should be more than strong enough.

 

Update? Especially on the first powder coated ones?

PM w price please

 

pm with price i want one

 

Sorry about the delay guys I dropped off the dampers to the paint guy today he is really been backed up with work.

PM's sent

 

What's the estimated ETA on the powdercoating?

 

Can I have the status on mine? Have you sent them out yet??

 

just installed mine this weekend, took about 15 minutes, works wonderful, the gap isn't as noticeable as i thought it would be, compared to the picture that's posted in this thread.

 

I really hope that to be true! Now, if I can just get them.

 

Okay, I'm really late on the bandwagon here but if they are still available I want in. Pm'd for black ones.
