Here they are, what happened is that the chrome guy tried to get them finished and back to me in record time, so he did not let them completly dry before packaging...

 

Since he did that, he put drain holes in the lower bottom to quicked the process. If you are familiar with chroming, the parts go through a series of cleaning/plating tanks. The holes do not effect structural integrety, but he made them ugly in my eyes... The residue you see on the chrome itself is easily cleaned with mineral spirits or WD, or polish.

 

Plugs can be bought at any Lowe's or HD store for 1 dollar if you are concerned with debris or water getting in there... The only good part about them is the fact that the inside of the arm is also plated, since the solution was also inside the arm... corrosion is not an issue

 

With 1 hr of elbow grease, you will have a product that is less than half price... I'm moving on to other projects, and 10 of these things sitting in the shop coupled with the wife issues is a waste for me, hence the blowout

1) I've got a gloss black two that is not a color I use anymore, so it's considered a blem

2) Have the Tex black with the gaurd holes 1/4 too close, ream the gaurd and it's fine

3) Have a perfect bare one that just did not make it to powder

4) Have a bare round style and a carrier to go with it --- Not $125 range

5) No stock length. Above listed are all 2's

6) needle's come with unless otherwise stated

 

 

What size is the round arm and carrier and price?

I am interested in one of those honda style carrier arms (+2" or +4") but they look like a strictly drag arm. I don't see any gusseting in the corners. Do you have any that are reinforced for more strength for dune riding?
