AFX spindles

[Sfinx]

Hi,

Can anyone update this thread to advise whether the back log is now cleared and new orders will move rather quickly? or is there still a large wait?

Thanks,
Gavin

I got a call from Mark at SC&C yesterday saying that the spindles I ordered several weeks ago should ship early next week so it sounds like the backlog is getting quite a bit smaller. If you want them I suggest you order from Mark since he seems to be able to get in touch with Tyler and usually has the latest news regarding ship dates etc.

Ok thanks, for the update.

Has anyone got their steering arms? I talk to Tlyer two month ago when I got my spindles, he told me they were in the anodizer and should have them the next week. Two month later and no steering arms. Just wondering if anyone got their arms?

I may suggest that you try to contact Tyler at Anvil instead of ATS. I spoke to him a little while ago

For what it's worth, I put ATS spindles on a custom fabricated suspension in my Corvette (front steer, rack and pinion). Tyler did not have A-body (front steer) arms at the time. I bought a block of T7075 aluminum and had a very good machinist in Phoenix put the dimensions I gave him (based on the bump steer and Ackerman measurements I had taken) in CAD and then CNC machine the arms for me. They are very similar to the A-body arms, but are probably not exactly the same dimensions. I wouldn't want to take business away from Tyler if he is still producing the steering arms, but there is at least another alternative. I haven't hard anodized the arms yet (T7075 should be anodized to prevent surface corrosion). The arms were pretty expensive (one-off), but part of the cost was the initial computer set-up and the cost of the jig, something that could be partially offset if you produced more than one set. I'll try to find a better picture of the steering arms.

I just got a heads up from Tyler that another batch of our backorders would be shipping next week. He didn`t mention if all of them would ship with steering arms so I`m waiting to hear back from him on that then we can contact everyone. I know everyone would like to get their parts right away but Tyler`s doing the level best that he can. Everyone will get their parts, just hang in there guys. Mark SC&C

Does anyone know who owns this company? I am highly disapointed with this companies customer service. I would like to let the owner know about how I feel. I'm sure there are others out there as well who feel this way.

It's still Tylers company as far as I know. He's doing it part time, so you'd need to contact him for an idea when they'll ship.
