WTB: Front Coil buckets (Autofab or the like)
I'm looking for some Autofab or similar type coil buckets up front. I want to run a good shock but I'm not ready for coil-overs yet (or at least my wallet isn't).
Let me know what you have. I'm located in SoCal.

Jason, I may be ready to sell mine in the next month or so. If your not in a hurry we can talk and see if works for both of us. I ma ready to go to coilovers but I need to make the money side work out. I have the autofab hoops set up to run a 14" shock off the front of the beam or you can run a 10" off the back. Like I said though I am still at least a month out but if your not in a hurry we can probably work something out.

Jessi!! My brother will eventually want to step up to a larger front shock, so this would be a sweet setup for him!!

Cool....I am hoping by the end of the year to be able to move on my set up....if I dont go with coilovers I will be doing some rework of my set up. Lessons learned from the first go around loltcm glx wrote:Polarcub wrote:Ok...I know they are not for princess.....?tcm glx wrote:Jeremy, put me second in line for those buckets.

Jeremy,
I'm not in a huge hurry either. This would be perfect for me!
I'll give you a call.

Soon I will be manufacturing my own in three different styles. Hoping to be able to make them in the $400-$500 range new with a shock mount.

Re: WTB: Front Coil buckets (Autofab or the like)
The three option I plan on are with a 10" shock behind the bucket, 14" in front, and a combo bucket that allows you to run both. Plate style mounts like my Camburg buckets have. No cross bar but most people could add that themselves if wanted.
I will know exact prices once I get a quote from the laser cutter.
Although a coil over mount works a little better, I still feel this is a good option for a lot of people.

For sure. I look forward to seeing some prices... just in case Jeremy decides to hang onto his setup for a while
