Anyone have trouble ordering Quicksand arms?

[J.D. Blackwell]

I was wondering if of you guys have ordered from Quicksand Motorsports lately? Reaon I ask is because I ordered a set of A-arms April 5th and Gary or whoever the guy was said it would only be about 2 weeks since I wanted them bare metal and no plating or coating. Well, its been almost a month now. I've called, but nothing but an answering machine.

 

So I was wondering if you guys have had any trouble getting your parts from him. I know he billed my credit card the day I ordered them, because I got my CC statement in the other day.

gary makes some super nice stuff

on occasion he is late at delivery but the product is good enough that you wont mind when you have it in hand

 

if i remember right he is a certified welder and works in the aerospace industry and does quicksand on the side

so from time to time he is swamped with work

what is wrong with the top left a arm? Looks like a kid did the bending.

[sanddragon2004]

Looks like the front heim joint is threaded out about 1/2" farther than the right side

nothing wrong wtih them, i prob dont have them threaded all the way, i pullled one of them off to show the difference to a customer between our heims and one of our competitors heims.

What type of heims do you use, what sets them apart for said competitor's choice of heims?

we use a heavy duty Teflon Lined Heim. its like a 3/4" shaft that threads into the arm.

i am waiting for a swing arm and also can't get a hold of him. I am starting to get worried myself is been over a month.

[sanddragon2004]

Just wanted to add. Our A arms where designed and engineered using input from ELKA Suspension to ensure the geometry is just right, Not copies from some other manufacture.

 

thats includes all of our suspension a arms, swing arms Long travel a arms and rec series a arms.

 

thanks.

I lost contact with him in the same timeframe you did. We were emailing about an A-arm i thought i tweaked alittle. I havnt been able to call him yet, but it sounds like I wouldnt be able to get ahold of him anyway...Hopefully it doesnt become a problem

 

Those sand draggon arms look rediculously identical to Jannsen A-arms..I see an Inland ATV sticker on your racks..are you affiliated with them??

I dont know about that. That looks like the arm is at an angle to the pivot tube. Looks like to make it straight you would have to thread the top one in and take a shit load out the other one. Mine arent like that.
