Just thought I'd throw it out there cause thats actually what I'm looking for. ;)

You know, I actually have a couple ideas drawn up, but the cost to get into the intial batch is somewhat expensive and I didn't see a high volume of people wanting/needing these since they can lock them out for free. I have had 2 people I think ask about them (those and rotated Cs). I will blow the dust off of them and see what it might take.

Let me know when you get the rear locked out Cs. I need a set of rears and a set of regular fronts.

Yes locking out the TLT steering is easy but not very scale looking if you looking to do a semi scale build. That and the extra links just add a weak area that can possibly fail.

INVENTORY UPDATE!!

I am currently out of Fat-Rock C-s :-(. However, a new batch has been ordered but it will be approximately 3 weeks for delivery. Thanks to supporting Vendors such as Tammies Hobbies and theCrawlerStore, they have pretty much bought me out of stock and should have some on the shelf. Move fast though, they are a hot commodity for sure.

Thanks again for everyone's support ,

I have checked every vendor I could find and they are all out of stock on the Axle Cs. Any word on when they will be available again.

Thanks everyone for waiting. I am looking at Tuesday or Wednesday for when they come in. I will of course do a day of random sampling of Quality Assurance checks to make sure they are correct, so that means I will have them available on the website by Wednesday and will ship on Thursday/Friday.

REALLY Important, if you want C-s right away, please order by Thursday 5 PM Pacific Time. I will be shipping out the orders on Friday at lunch time. Then I will be off on my honeymoon for a couple of weeks.

Thanks again and glad everyone is happy so far with the product and customer service. I try to make all the orders as smooth as possible and everyone happy in the end. So thanks again.

HAHHA.... poor man's highlift. That's a good one. Although, I think you spent your money wisely on the fake version Vs. the real version. $300+ (or whatever it is now) is quite a bit for one of those rigs. It looks great BTW.

Funniest thing ever. Obviously I have unlimited access to the Axle-Cs. I pulled out my vintage 2005 comp rig to do a "Retro-Comp" weekend and it had the plastic C-s still. I didn't feel like I needed to install them before the event. Wouldn't you know it, I snapped 2 today . Just a tad embarrassing to not only still be running them, but then snap the plastic C-s as well.

Once I have received the parts in and verified they are good, I will populate the store accordingly and you will be able to order on the website and pay through PayPal. As long as your payment clears through PayPal, I will ship by Friday. Thursday possibly if things go right.

Sorry to say, the parts did not come in today. However, there is hope for tomorrow as it went out to the platers today. I will go ahead and populate the cart tonight or tomorrow morning so that they can be purchased. I have good confidence that the quality will match those of the past.

Thanks for the patience.
