I make stuff
Alright guys, it's finally that time again. I'm putting together another run of 10 sets of these. Depending on how quickly they sell, I might think about doing another run of them shortly thereafter, and try to keep them in stock for the random people that ask about them every once in a while.
For those that don't know, these shock mounts provide a way to mount aftermarket Thunderbird/Cobra rear shocks to our Mark VIII's. They also give you a means of replacing the OEM shock mounts that are prone to failure due to the rubber bushing failing prematurely. If you're hearing a clunk in the rear of your car every time you go over a bump, chances are, you need these!
With these mounts, the aftermarket options available to you are tremendous. There are quite a few companies that provide shock options for the Thunderbirds or Cobras, that you'll now be able to use on your Mark VIII. These options range from cheap ($30) OEM-style ride (such as Monroe Sensa-tracs), to the higher-priced and better performing adjustable Koni's.
I'm looking at having these available by the end of the month, but only if I can get 5 pre-paid orders by the end of the week. The longer it takes to get the pre-paids, the longer it'll take for me to get them... I'm offering a pre-paid discount of $60 shipped for the first 5. After that, the price will be $66 shipped. The price has gone up slightly since I can no longer get scrap pieces of 1/4" and 1/8" stainless steel for free.
The list of people who have pre-paid at the discounted rate so far:
1. Pengun (LVC)
2. Hang the Expense (LVC)
3. Markviiiedrea (LVC) -- Lvnmarks here on LOD
4. 97MarkJA
5.
So, who's in??? I'm trying to get at least the first 5 pre-paids by the end of this week. The waterjetter is sending me some sample pieces and I'd like to be able to give him the go-ahead on them as soon as I QC the samples.
