When are we shipping?
I ordered these with the assumption that two months was a reasonable time frame.
We've now exceeded that and I need them before July.

Finishing up first few sets now.
My full time job laid all the machinists off except for me a few weeks ago and has kept me busier now than I have been in two years trying to run both their shops. Only getting time in some of the evenings to work on these so it threw a major wrench into things.

I feel your pain. We're down on work force at my job as well.

So 1 week? 2 weeks?

Still shows processing, backordered.
Will the website show order updates?

I'm going to make an earnest plea for an ETA, because I have a set of rims and tires which I was hoping to put on my Wraith, soon, for a better trailing setup, and I'm just waiting on those wide cans.

Are we looking at the end of July, early Aug...end of summer?

Had time yesterday evening to do some more machine work on the next sets. I'll have them ready end of the week and out the door.

Thanks for the update! I'm on the last batch, so I guess it'll be August at the earliest.

I must say how nice it is to mount a set of tires with the 1" cans.
I mounted a 2.2 KLR gold set on some method 101's with CI dueces wild foams.
After properly shaping the inner diameter of the foams the setup mounted easier than any beadlock I've ever had to deal with.
As soon as available, I need another set of cans!

Checking back in on these. Coming up on a month since this post and over 4 months since I ordered. Thanks

Not sure if anyone else is following this thread, but I'm beginning to get concerned. Clay hasn't been on the forum since 8/3 and I've sent him multiple email messages since May with no reply. He was pretty responsive to my emails for the first month or so, but has now gone completely silent. If anyone may have any information regarding Carter Fab and if they're still actually making parts, please post up. I ordered these on April 7th and have been waiting patiently. I completely understand things happen; and I know what it means to get so busy it's hard to get things done. However, communication goes a long way. I'd hate to have to cancel my order because I've been waiting to mount some SX XLs on my Methods since April; but if I need to figure out something else, I guess that's what I'll have to do. Thanks very much.
