I talked to one of the sales reps from Alba on the phone, and I was told Leager makes there arms. That's what I was told, right or wrong. I've seen them and heard good feedback on them. I need to squeeze the neck of that goose with the golden eggs so I can trick out my ride..........yo

I am now waiting for the shocks to come in and seen the A-arm and it pretty cool looking.

Staight from Swytaks
Josh,
Thank you for your consideration and interest in the arms I am making. I will be sure to thank Moose (Dave) as well!!!
Regarding pricing, I must first explain to you that I do offer a couple of options which can change the pricing.
The first option is powdercoating. Standard colors (red, blue, silvervein, etc...) costs $40. If you want anything exotic (clear coat chrome, prizmatic, etc...) the price will change accordingly and is not typically much more then $10-$20 more for a complete set including tie rods.
I also offer an option for bushings. I usually explain to people that the stock bushings will hold up and work just fine, but some people have their minds made up that they need more then that, so? I have been running the stock bushings out of my stock a-arms now for a year with the arms I fabricate and have not experienced any problems what so ever. I can sell new stock bushings, brass and I also offer needle bearings for those that want the upmost in bushings.
Pricing:
For a set of 4130 heat treated .120 wall thickness Chromolloy +2w, +1f arms, solid 4130 heat treated 1/2 OD tie rods, standard powder coating and 4- 18,000 lb. heim joints with the correct taper studs (no reaming), I am asking $410 + shipping. Turn around time from date of order is 14 days and could be quicker depending what I have in stock at that particular time. Exotic powder coating will also delay the time another 3 - 5 days as well, due to the fact that I may have to order that particular color specifically for you.
If you are wanting bare metal arms, it would then cut off about a 1 weeks time (would then be approx 7 days) and $30 from the over all cost (totaling $380 + shipping).
If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to e-mail me at swy727@aol.com. It may take me a a day or so to return your e-mail, so please be patient if you choose e-mailing as a source of communication.
Again, thank you for your interest and consideration and I hope to have the opportunity to speak with you in the very near future!
Regards,
Jim (Swy)
P.S.
Regarding your question of using stock shocks on extended arms, it can be done, but you are going to notice that the shocks will be extremely spongy. I would not suggest you run any shock not designed for extended arms. It will also matter the length of extension from stock too (+3, +2, or +1 width), it does NOT however matter if they are +1 forward though.
If you are considering new shocks I have a very good source and can provide EXTREMELY competitive pricing, especially on Elka's!
