Hi everyone. Just a heads up, I have been in contact with Don regarding his .50 caliber customs CNC rear ORV arms, and he is now considering the option of another parts run if there is enough interest.He is going to contact some local machine shops to work out minimum numbers and minimum pricing required and take it from there. Obviously the rear swing arms are the crown jewel item, but other possible parts if it goes ahead are steering blocks, front arms, rear shock mounts, rear body post brace, and motor cover.

Some links to show examples of his parts -

Don's plan once he knows minimum cost and numbers is to start a go fund me page to raise the capital required. He is happy for me to share his email address so any questions can be sent directly to him, but please genuinely interested inquiries only -

Lets all support him on this and cross our fingers in the hope that it goes ahead.

Cheers,
Dave.

Not sure at this stage I guess it will depend on the number of interested people.
Its only early days yet, and he is going to start looking into things this weekend but from the contact I have had with him, if he gets enough numbers and it goes ahead the pricing should work out to be very reasonable.
Best to wait and see how he goes once he touches base with some machinists, then we should have an idea of prices. Feel free to send him an email as well if you are genuinely interested.
Cheers.
