Lower Ball Joint Manufacturing Update, Phase 2

Post by Linda »

List,
Well we hit our number to satisfy the manufacturer. Step 1 complete.
I contacted the rep who was plesantly surprised at how fast things are moving.
Next step will be drawings and specs etc in the next week.
Needless to say I will need all engineering types to help check out that part for quality control and correctness.
After that we will need to gather the money in some fashion (always the fun part). I have a few ideas about that but would like to hear input.
And ,No, I am not going to front the money, but nice try :)

The rep mentioned the uppers also as being able to be either 1.rebuilt or 2.remanufactured depending on interest.
I am only counting LOWERS right now but can say that many want uppers as well. We may be able to work a deal for uppers too if we have the numbers. This is just info for down the line after the lowers get done.

If you are interested in lowers, post to the Ball Joint Manufacturing Update thread (Tech-> BJ Manufacturing Update if you have not already done so.

I would suggest sending an invoice to everyone. Every invoice would get a number so it will be easy to track. This also leaves a nice paper trail for you and everyone who orders.
