no 60's yrs huh?

phipp13 · 10-18-2009, 02:01 AM

I'll find out on mon. I know they have a measurement sheet so they can bend one up for you that fits. They won't leave you out. You may have to do a lil more work thats all. Phipp

Good luck trying to get a hold of anyone at Autoweld. I called 3 times and talked to the owners wife, and asked her to have someone call me back. I was prepared to spend at least $2500 on products. Looks like great products but cust. service blows. They lost my business.

Wild83C10 · 10-18-2009, 03:26 PM

If you get a hold of them and can get a good discount I would be interested.

Super73 · 10-18-2009, 05:25 PM

I also might be interested.

fiddy9apache · 10-18-2009, 06:37 PM

pics? is there cages though the window?

phipp13 · 10-18-2009, 08:09 PM

i have no pics but if i can get ahold of them i'll ask. where you put the rear bars depend on 2 things though 1 the height of the hoop installed and the angle of your rear bars.. that all depends on who installs your cage. i used to work in a chassis shop in VA for 8 years. if anyone wanted me to install their cage i have the equiptment and welders to do so

djracer · 10-18-2009, 10:19 PM

If you can't get them try S&W Race Cars. They run a big sale on cages every winter.

phipp13 · 10-23-2009, 09:51 AM

heres the skinny on the group buy. i spoke to Ron @ Autoweld and he said 5 is the minimum for a group buy. also he said that where we could really save $$ (about 150.00 to ship a cage) is on shipping. ie you could ship 2 cages for almost the price of 1. maybe we could group the ship locations also a 1 week lead time is the norm. i no problem getting in touch with them. phipp

Super73 · 10-23-2009, 01:17 PM

What did he say about the 60-63's and 64-66's?

Wild83C10 · 10-23-2009, 03:49 PM

What kind of discount would a 5+ group buy get? $150 to ship a cage. I might as well go pick it up. (If I do pick it up I would be willing to pick it up for other members as well)

The Big Green · 10-23-2009, 05:14 PM

I need a cage badly. I'm interested.

fast_dev · 10-24-2009, 05:00 PM

im interested too, im only about 35 miles from them. if shipping is the only savings it wouldn't benefit me at all as i would be picking mine up anyway. but if it helps the purchase price im in. whenever i called there i always got good customer service.

phipp13 · 10-24-2009, 08:47 PM

super 73 i dropped the ball and forgot to ask him about the 60-63 & the 64-66s i will get an answer on mon. i was writing everything down so i could give you guys the straight scoop. i will ask ron on monday. v/r mark

gene_ensor · 11-01-2009, 06:00 PM

phx 4x4 · 11-01-2009, 07:18 PM

phipp13 · 11-08-2009, 12:34 AM
