[size=18:445cb2cd4c][color=red]This GP is CLOSED
2/4 - Bearings ordered [/color:445cb2cd4c][/size:445cb2cd4c] Price? 257.90 a pair, plus $10 shipping via USPS Priority Mail for MO's Add an additional $8.00 if using PayPal. No Checks or CC's. Shipping weight is 25 lbs. I ship via USPS Priority flat rate to the US. I'm OK with shipping out of country. It can be expensive. So to be fair to both of us, if you or any other C4Guru member that wants a set, you need to research the shipping costs ahead of time. I did ship one set to Canada that cost approx $25 USD. I can suggest using; www.usps.com www.ups.com www.fedex.com Calculate the rate based on 25 lbs 11"x 8 1/2"x 5 1/2" 11.36kg 28cm x 21.6cm x 14cm From Sonora, CA 95370 to your location Any documentation required needs to be emailed to me in advance.

My caffiene hasnt fully kicked in yet but the short version I take it is that we found a tapered rear wheel bearing that provides substantial side loading for cornering applications that should last longer. Its not serviceble. No negatives, still uses ABS and is a direct bolt in replacement. Anything else?
(yes I read the links but found the info to be a bit convoluted in my current state.) |

I'm going to perform the track testing this summer to verify... I might consider lending it to you. But I'm of Italian descent so loan shark rates will apply. Also, my cousin Giuseppe would be keeping a close eye on you.... I'd be very interested in your results and will consider them a worthy acid-test. I'd seriously be interested in perhaps the next go-around. Considering the price of any stock replacements that one would have confidence in installing, this is very reasonable. Any plans for upgraded fronts in the future too? |

Front wheel bearings
The testing did not go well and the project has been placed on hold for the time being. Maybe later this year........ Until then, we still have a RWB GP going on and since the pledges are not responding, this GP is open to everyone. |

Although not part of this GP, I missed it, I got my tapered bearings yesterday and installed them last night. Now I have zero play in the rear wheels. I haven't driven on them yet as my son has me blocked in the garage. (Electrical problem) As far as looks go, they seem like a quality product. I took some pictures comparing the OEM bearing and the tapered one. Externally, not much difference.

Got'Em ! Probably came in the first part of the week, just forgot to check our "oversize" box at work. There they were! Box was in good shape; the styrofoam was a little busted up but did it's job nicely and kept the contents from any damage. Those are really nice pieces!

No, My postal carrier delivered them to the wrong address. I'm going to file a police report for theft since she said she delivered them. The reason I highly doubt she left them at my house is why didn't they take the Dewitts rad I got recently, much bigger box to attract attention. Everything I've ordered from Summit, Jegs, McMaster Carr, MSC, has all been left at the front door in plain sight and always been there when I got home. I should have sent some extra $$ for UPS shipping. Can you give me some details about the box for when I do the police report?, size, color, address on outer box or label. Thanks, Al

Don't give anyone your reasoning for the carriers error. Heres why; the carrier is solely responsible for the delivery. This means that the carrier must pay for the loss as well. Since the package did not arrive at your door then the carrier will have to dig into his/her pocket to cover the loss. I called my friend at the PO I shipped from and he said to goto the USPS.com site and file a report. Since the report is filed in this manner the PO Master must respond and resolve your problem. So don't give them any info other than your pissed, and want your package or $280 bucks to cover your loss. I have all the receipts so I can verify the contents value. Good Luck, Steve |

A little background so we're on the same page.
First GP netted 17 buyers or 34 pieces. We got the best price and the orders were delivered just after Thanksgiving. Second GP we barely got 7 buyers or 14 pieces. My contact pushed his boss and we still got the price. BUT, in order to get the same price I have to have a minimum of 30 pieces or 15 buyers. This can happen quickly if the word spreads quickly. I'll do the leg work if you guys will help find the buyers. Please contact me via PM only. I usually hang out at C-G OT these days and seldom sign-in at the other place. Should duty call, I'm at your service. |
