Anyone else want to jump in for this run? I'm going to order material in the morning, and there won't be any extras, so you'll have to wait for the next run... whenever that is......
Now's your chance to get a set before May.

Nope. I am going to run the orders I have on a different machine and it will take tons longer, but that way I can still get them out before MSD. If I had a hundred I could have done them on the bigger machines and still in the same amount of time. Unfortunately it's impossible to make any cash on these at the lower quantities, but at least they will get out. Some of you get bomb proof axles! haha!

I had asked about custom length axles tubes and I believe you quoted me $25 per side extra, so that would be $100 total extra on top of the cost of the 'basic' axles, correct?

Likely start producing this week best I can tell... at the end of the week. I hope to ship by the 25th, but we are off for a couple of days for Easter so might be a bit delayed thanks to that.

I honestly think this is what is holding back most everyone. Including myself. IF there is another run, i think you will have a much larger response. Im hoping for the best.

True, most (me included) generally shop by proven products, that's true. In this case, it's pre-orders to get the thing moving, or nothing happens at all, and therefore, in this case we have pre-orders, and it's moving. I'm sure there will be another run of these, but it will miss MSD, that's all.

I think the big thing keeping a few people from ordering is not having a tested prototype yet, but, I'm sure there are plenty of people that also need to save up the cash for these.

Those in the first run, I am sure, will post up their experience in their build threads, and when people see these things proven on the rocks, at comps and in videos and threads, there will be more interest for them.

Thanks, unfortunately I just can't spend $450 for axle housings right now, hopefully in the near future.

i agree 100% but i have never heard anything bad about a gcm product and to be one of the first to get these housings is a rare pleasure hope to get more later

Do you have any real shots you could post, I am interested, its just a little more money then I thought is was going to be. Maybe you could give Norm a set so we could see some video or pics and etc.
