Awesome...thank you.

I am glad to see that these are getting made. I'm sorry you had so much trouble with the file I sent you. Unfortunately, the file wasn't created by me and I'm not familiar with the compatibility between ACAD and your software. Thanks again for taking the time to mess around with these. I told you there would be quite a bit of interest.

In all honesty, I'm just glad to see so many people still rockin' TLT axles.

I am in for a set..

the hole patter and case dimensions(at the C) are the same on both axles. the fatrocks did.. So I cant imagine that these would not work..

For the record, I'd also be interested in two sets of these.

YES!
I TOTALLY agree!

Can anyone give me a good place to start/terms to search for to find info on increased caster? (Advantages/Disadvantages) I think it looks horrible, just want more info

KC_JoNeS · 06-28-2011, 11:25 PM

OK guys...I got the quote and it seems reasonable to me. But, I am not the judge.

I will start with 100 sets (after I get some samples made). The price will be $20 per set. Am I in the ballpark of the originals?

bugman72 · 06-29-2011, 05:12 AM

I don't remember what the others sold for, but that seems like a decent price. I'll let some of the others who have purchased these in the past chime in.

gyrene · 06-29-2011, 06:53 AM

Back in '09 I bought the stainless steel Fat-Rock ones from RCP for $23.99. So your price seems right in the ballpark to me.

I'd like to see some pics of these if they are available.

needs2hunt · 07-02-2011, 10:29 AM

price is good... about what any other alum. c runs for any other rig... get busy ... need 2 sets

KC_JoNeS · 07-02-2011, 05:35 PM

The tooling will take 8 more days, and then a couple more days for first samples.

That sounds awesome. I have just been lurking this thread for updates lately. Its great to hear that there is enough interest to warrant all the time you've invested.

I'm one of the faithful to the tlt's as well and I own a set of stainless fatrocks and the added caster aluminum ones. I will definitely be interested a couple sets when the time comes.

Redronin · 07-06-2011, 11:56 AM

I need..... must have plzzzzz

if not some people are gonna find their tlt builds on blocks at the next meet......hehe

bugman72 · 07-06-2011, 12:08 PM

I'm definitely ready to get my hands on a pair of these. I installed a Holmes Hobbies Revolver Black in my crawler over the weekend and now, after 6 years of having it the same way, I am constantly popping the driveshaft end off of the yolk at the transmisison due to the extreme angle.

That motor has a TON of torque (and I'm only running 2S). If there has ever been a need for me to have these clocked Cs, it's now.

KC_JoNeS · 07-06-2011, 04:50 PM

A fee more days. they are coming.
