Hi

Im thinking of getting a batch of shock towers made up would anyone be interested they will be CNC machine from aluminium made to a very high standard.Price should be around £15-20 a pair if i have a lot of interest and have a large amount made the price should be cheaper.Also I am interested in any design suggestions.If interested please reply to this thread or email me at toby.sibert@serenweb.co.uk.

Cheers

Price sounds good, if they cater for 4 inch shocks I would be interested. There's a couple of places which make these already, but based in the USA so after post and import duty they work out pricey. However, you could take a look at their products to get ideas.

I would be interested in 4" shocktower - price sounds good , not bothered with the ones from usa as Jozza stated due to price. I like the design from RC4WD.com as a suggestion.

It may also be possible to get them anodised in black red or blue.I personaly think they will look nice in plain polished aluminium but black may be good.It looks like i will get 20 made so 10 pairs.And if they go well i will get more made.If they sell well I would perhapse like to market the product with nice packaging etc..How high do you think the demand could be in the UK or europe?.are there any other parts for the WD TD BFX people may be interested in as I have access to a CNC machine and can get stuff made fairly cheap.I was thinking of getting a quote for the stock wheels but in polished aluminium!

If you could make some alloy wheels to suit the pumpkin I would be very interested. I was thinking of trying to get some made through some connections in work (Im an areospace fitter) but most are too expensive due to the small bacth size (only need four for myself). As for designs, anything thats not too mad, a nice modular style would be good.

What do you think?

What size wheels are they ,sorry im fairly new to this hobby, are they the hex type if so im sure i could get them made and if I could get enough people interested I should be able to get a good price (my dad runs an engineering company[;)])

I prefer the design of the towers at rc4wd.com over the ones made by r2-c2. I would be interested in pricing for a cnc rail chassis for the Twin Det, like the r2-c2 one, or even better like the one which rc4wd used to supply until I got enough cash to afford one, then found they were discontinued [:(]
