my parts

[400exbiggun]

Pm'ed ya a couple times. Just wanting to know if you got my a-arms and what not, and if you could just take pics when you are done and tell me what i owe you.

[Pappy]

got them today. i didnt know you sent them via us mail and i had to go get them from the post office.

there was only 1 upper arm sent, did you forget to box it or what?

[400exbiggun]

No, the other a-arm needs to get re-welded. It got bent so a brace needed to get cut off, then a new brace welded on. If you can do that that would be awsome. I work 8-5pm, so i really dont have the time to keep shipping out parts since eveyone is closed when im home. IF you have my a-arm in front of you, the top a-arm that skinny tube going across got bent. I bought it like that, i guess the shock hit it or something. It works fine just dosent look pretty. If you can weld it up or someone there can for less than like $75 ill send it to you. Not worth my time messing around with now.

Sorry, didnt know usps makes you pick it up. Next time ill ship it all dhl.

The next package youll be getting from me will be the frame, other upper a-arm, and the exhaust part, along with the grab bar and what ever other parts i get.

Everything packaged is gloss black except the upper a-arms which are going to be candy blue.

Also i dont know if i mentioned this, but this is my sr. project. So i need as many pics as possible. If you get around to it can you just snap a few pics through the process. If it costs extra that fine, or if not its ok. Just that the more pictures i have shows the work that was actually involved in this project.

[Pappy]

send over the bent arm and ill see what i can do. i dont think it will be $75, thats pretty steep;)

[400exbiggun]

ok, tomorrow is payday. Plus i have off saturday and that will be my only time to be able to ship this stuff out. I can get a pic of the a-arm if you need to know what im talking about. The arm itself is 100% straight, just that brace thinggie.

[Pappy]

if i read your pm correctly, you want pics of the progress for your project.

Thanks a ton, your the man pappy.

I just bought some killer paint stripper and it ate right through the frame. There is very little pc left at all on it. Im calling DHL tonight and making a pickup for tomorrow. So the other control arm, exhaust part, frame and grab bar will be out tomorrow. Everything that color black, cept the 2 upper a-arms.


Thanks a ton. After this package thats it for now until i find a swingarm, stem, and some shocks for you to shoot the springs.

[400exbiggun]

Pappy, you have more mail:D
You can expect a big yellow DHL truck to be dropping off my frame, the exhaust part, other control arm and grab bar. They are schedualed for monday.

Cost me only $15.11....pretty damn good.:D

[Pappy]

i will be looking for them:)

[400exbiggun]

I forgot to add also. Do you do ceramic coating? I need the header and the silencer part ceramic coated if possible. Price on that? But it will wait until i get the rest of my parts from you.


Also i did what you said and got alot of the pc off the frame about 70% of the frame is bare metal. And the rest of the trans blue will peal right off. I cant imagine it taking longer to blast my frame than a normal stock painted frame now.

[400exbiggun]

Got any more pics yet...sorry to be so annoying im just really excited:D

[Pappy]

nothing new yet, the frame should be completed this week tho:)

[400exbiggun]

Thats cool, did you get my PM about powdercoating my walsh swingarm...it has 2 cracks that i found also. Know the approx cost to weld up those 2 cracks and shoot black? I might be getting it stripped and welded, but just thought id ask.


Also, i want to do a few parts a really wild color. Do you have any like real sparkley blue or something really crazy? Just want to shoot like fender mounts and exhaust tip something different than the black/blue scheme im aiming for.

[400exbiggun]

ever get my frame done yet:(

[Pappy]

your frame was done last week. everything should be back mid week.

[Pappy]

btw..what was the outcome with DHL?

[400exbiggun]

oh, wow didnt know you sent it out. Got any pics.

Also i called DHL, they said they would "investigate" after i told them im not paying a cent. Have not heard back from them yet:D

[400exbiggun]

also im going shopping tomorrow at my friends house. So there will be another batch of parts waiting for you very soon.:p

[250-R-250]

Sweet, how did you ship a frame for only 15? Is that just a price because your special or something? Could I have one shipped for that?

[Pappy]

most frames run around $18 bucks to pennslyvania to wet virginia. the same for other neighboring states. it seems its about 10 bucks for each state ...lol
