Default cheaper full set of wishbones

I've come across a cheap supplier of CDS tubing that might as well read 'fell off the back of a lorry' so I can offer 5 complete sets of wishbones using CNC cut parts,bush tubes are bored to the book specs,tubes are machine profiled in 3/4" 14g and 1" 14g CDS complete with rear camber adjusters for £265 plus £10 postage. So I make that a saving of at least £30-40 over what you can buy pre made from me or any body else that makes wishbones. Any body interested?

That's a gr8 price, I think I will be buying a full suspension Set along with my chassis pack from Andy though when I get round to it.

P.S. What tube do they use on the hospital trollies beds at the Eye Clinic

You can ask for a discount if you buy more than one item at a time, If you don't ask you won't get.

That's what I kinda ment... The bones,etc and uprights. If the overall price is nice then they may join the parts pile.. Especialy if I can combine postage on the Rooooms.. ( if they are not sent yet )

If you can Supply a Hill-rom bed at the same time that may be usefull

This all sounds good for those building but harks back to the cut throat price war of the Locost. Companies are in danger of working for next to nowt
