Hi all,?
?

Just a reminder in case no one saw this before.?

Rare Parts has the Datsun Lower A-arm shafts that I had manufactured 
several months ago.   These shafts have the bearings on each end and 
attach the lower A-arm pieces to the frame.?

They are $95 each, plus shipping and tax, where applicable, and you 
order them from Rare Parts directly.  I don't make anything off of this, 
I just needed a set and was appalled at the prices I was seeing, so I 
looked into having these made.?

Used, these were $200 each, and the one place I could find them new got 
them through Canada, from Japan at a cost of about $325 each.?
?

The $95 each is a limited price for a limited time.  They will go up, 
but I'm not sure how much or when.?

These aftermarket A-arm shafts work great.  I installed them on my car.  
They fit exactly the same, but look a tad different.?
?

The originals were one poured piece of metal.?
?

The aftermarkets are a shaft that has had the threads for the bushings 
cut in, then hardened, and then the mounting flanges welded to the 
shaft.  The shaft portion is a tad thicker, and stronger as well, but 
doesn't affect the performance of the item at all.?

Again, these are made by RARE PARTS, not some po-dunk hole in the wall shop.?

Any questions, feel free to post on the list and I'd be happy to answer 
them.?
?

Eddie?
