Toyoutfitters Rear Link Deal

Several of us have been looking at rear links separately. It appears that many of us have chosen the toyoutfitters rear links.

The deal as I understand it is this. No discount on the links themselves, but they will waive shipping fees if we order more than 3. Shipping is normally 18-22 dollars. Robbie has heard from Stan at TO that they will ship them in pairs (2 sets of links) to reduce their shipping cost. I have only discussed their standard lower links, not their uppers nor their custom ones.

I live in Redwood City and would welcome having as many as you want shipped to me and picked up by you at some future date. If you do not live near redwood city (or far enough away so that saving 20 dollars becomes too much of a hassle maybe we can find someone closer that we can "pair up with" to work it out.

If you are interested please reply to this post. If you have questions about the links their phone numbers are 864-590-0051 or 864-461-7629

and their web page is http://www.thetoyoutfitters.net/Control_Arms.html.

Price each should be 265 (not sure about tax but I will find out)

I would like to put the order in over no later than Feb 15th. My hope is this will not be a coordination nightmare as it is really only a 20 dollar savings, but if it is a simple way to save a few bucks I am more than happy to make it happen.

Nice! Was the small strap strong enough?

it worked, luckily the holes were not off but much at all. The breaker bar was a life saver! I am going to have to change out the bolts as Stan mentioned. Every time I go from forward to reverse I hear a clicking noise. The stock ones are a little bit smaller of a diameter than the LCA's.

I bought the TC skids which came with 9/16 bolts. Hopefully that will cure the click when I install mine.

I blame Robbie and Lance for making me spend $$$ on the LCA's. Ordered them today! Lance where did you get the TC skids? That's my next purchase.

After further examination I do not think the TC skids are going to work. To get the bolts to line up the link is hitting the skid (due to the larger than normal head on the new link. Might give it a shot, but I think it will not work.

So...be warned if you buy the toyoutfitter links and a link skid they may not work together.
