| I'm waiting for the parts to arrive so I can weigh them and the steel parts I rip out of my truck. My guess is 20 grams, but we'll see. |

This would be about the same as replacing the entire screw set with Ti. Weight saving will be nearly the same as replacing the turnbuckles, but at less cost. | |

| The math says 13.5g for the inner pins alone. The outer pins will drop another 3-4 g. |

| Well, I guess I failed math class. The stock pins weigh 25g. The Ti pins weigh 17.8g. Total weight loss is 7.2g. |

If you found a different way to hold them besides those collars w/ grubs I bet the savings goes up a bunch.. to bad you couldn't use the stock e-clips. | |

| Well, I have a groove too for my lathe. I can put E-clips on the ends of them if you'd like. The collars and set screws weigh 4.1g. I can also cut about .8g off the pins. The e-clips will probably weigh .2g so I can probably get the weight down to 13.2g or so. I'll get some clips this week and post up the results. |

| OK guys, In order to get a reasonable price for the Spring Adapters I had to buy a ton of them. I'd really like to see people start using them as I'm sure word of mouth would help them sell. So, I'm going to throw in FREE SHIPPING if you buy 2 or more sets. If you order 4 sets I'll pay shipping AND throw in the 4th set for FREE. So the pricing is as follows: 1 set(four shocks): $15 shipped 2 sets(eight shocks): $20 shipped 4 sets(sixteen shocks): $30 shipped Thanks, Chris |

| I've had enough requests that I've decided to do a run of ten sets. They will be first come first serve. Get them while you can. They should ship by the 27th of June. SCTE, TEN and 810 Titanium Hinge Pin sets. The set will have 12 pieces: Front inner pins, Rear inner and outer pins, and e-clips for the rear outer pins. The pins will be long enough to use mudguards. Each set will be $30 shipped first class. Priority Mail for $5 per order. Express Mail for $18 per order. First Class shipping to Canada will be $4. IMPORTANT NOTE: Please put "Hinge Pins" in the subject line of your PP payment. Thanks, Chris Last edited by ChrisAttebery; 07-05-2011 at 02:11 PM. |
