I wouldn’t buy scrap free scrap metal from either of those jokers but I’d buy anything from Robert/RMC/Flight!

They may not sell to you, but they may also have their "own" billet lower that is slightly different than what they make for their customer (Giant or Threat) that they can sell you.

You can also get some basic dims from someone who has a set of beams with the billet lowers & have a machine shop do them. They are pretty much a piece of solid steel with the correct taper for the lower BJ reamed in & then the end radiused/cleaned up. Heck, not sure why I didn't think of this earlier, but what I said just reminded me... PM RMC on here. He owns Flight industries and he may know the dims & be able to make you a set. He's a good guy to deal with.


I talked to Andrew Cho and he was awesome. He’s going to sell me some once he gets more I’m just not sure when that will be. I’ll definitely hit up flight industries too. Thanks again

Good luck with it. I've never talked to Cho, but from what others say he's a good dude. And he definitely does some nice ass work!

Picked up a 9” from a friend. Hopefully $200 was a decent deal

$200 is pretty good. Did you get a bowling pin or 2 while you were there just because? I probably would have.

Beams look good. Are you planning to paint or steel-it?

Thanks! Yeah once I weld the truss and uniballs then I’ll steel it.

Nice that will look clean. Hit that rear end with steel it too, its crazy how much easier it is to clean these things up with the steel it on them.
