Swish!

Do the platforms lock off with a grub screw?

Those strut tops look good, you make them? willing to make some more or tell us where you got 'em?

Thanks Dillon,
I'm looking at doing this up myself. I have found a few threaded shaft kits with platforms and was wondering where Brendan got the platforms if he made the threaded sections.... and how they lock off. Most use two platforms, but some use a grub screw, others have a split platform that they clamp with a screw. So Brendan has only one lower platform, so is it grub screw, split clamed or something else?

but really interested in those tops....can beuse for camber or caster by the look.....

yeah thats the idea

top chamber plates are a bit of a pain to make

the top plates like mine with sphereical joint(rose joint) at the top will be around $450-500pr mark
but
i can one that uses the original teflon turning bush for muck cheaper

around $220-$250 a pair

Thats a bit more than I had in mind for both options. You could reduce the spherical bearing one cost by reducing the flower petal layout to a simple circle, no?
