Just haven't had time. Been very busy and behind due to unforeseen circumstances. They will get done and might be able to get some new designs in the next 2 weeks. I've got some special tabs just for axle housings that will make it easy for people to weld up their own custom link mounts and have the geometry perfect every time.

Fab Tabs turned this into a quick and profitable install of a custom tire carrier. Name:  ImageUploadedByTapatalk1382567072.109010.jpg

Designed this tab yesterday so you can now weld your own link mounts on our custom axle tubes. Save you a little money when buying custom housings from us.
They can also be trimmed into frame mount pan hard mounts or anything else you can be creative and come up with.

Not much extra work to make that tab bolt to a stock wraith housing either...

Similar to this,


I've been checking back periodically, but I don't see these or any other of mentioned new tabs on the website... I really like this one because it's double sheer. What else ya got?

let me rephrase that, I've been looking for these to buy since you posted the picture of the foldable one welded to your axle...

are you open to ideas or suggestions on designs?

Here's the newest Fab Tab. "Chassis" Fab Tab. These are available for the SCX10 and Wraith skids. Makes fabricating sliders a breeze or a great starting point for custom tube chassis.

These will be added to the site this coming Monday.

Chassis Tabs are added to the site as well as a thick shortie tab perfect for shackle mounts.
