Pm me if you get a haas, I repaired them for 6 years for one of their dealers. You may consider a tool room mill, 19000$ same machine minus the enclosure.

I'm pretty well versed in Haas LOL........ I have been running them since 91? I have replaced spindles, ball screws, spindle motors, tool carasels..........

That one has a shit load of tooling with it. It has at least 10K in tooling and about 200 hours on the clock. I would really like something VF2 sized agian, but I can't fit that in the garage....... Or power it.......

Just finished the design work on the Class One bulkhead/suspension. Should start getting built next week. The shock towers will be tied in with chassis tubing, so for now they are basically a "blank canvas" for the fabricators.

Unfortunately not the SVO, just a turbo. Oh and I forgot to mention it a convertible. They are really a cool set up an extremely easy to get a decent amount of power. Since it's not an SVO and is ruff I think I am gonna switch the front end to the 90s GT.

Yes, Deaver will certainly bend up any kind of u-bolt you want, as will just about any truck spring shop. Most will bend them while you wait, they just stock the straight lengths of material. RuffStuff gets them pre-bent from someone else.

I don't think Deaver even had a website until this year let alone e-mail. I have had never had much luck with a response from ANY company's e-mail address listed on their website. When you see sales@_______.com as an address beware, nobody ever checks it!

Talked with Deaver the other day (finally got off my butt & called) & we're good to go. Will order them before i bring my springs in for prep so I can grab them when I drop the springs off. $20 for 2 of exactly what I need/want. Should NOT have wasted the hour of my time & my tools. Oh well, live & learn.

As for the companies contact info through websites - many companies are GREAT with that now-a-days surprisingly. Deaver is just an old school company & is now. I'm ok with that though - as long as I force myself to call. Email is just so quick & easy, even from work when I sit here behind the glowing box all day long for work.
