Are you going to have a flat rate shipping within Canada or is it included?

Im currently looking at shipping options to find the best, least consumer costly shipping method I can find. I can say there will be a shipping charge on top, and it will likely be a flat rate. I will keep you guys posted on what I can get put together.

I just installed two sets from hygear. They work great. They are $39.99us, I paid $128cad delivered to my door. Just thought you might like to know before you commit to getting a pile of them made. There might not be as much interest as you first thought. I have been there before and ended up with stuff I could not sell..... Just saying

thanks for your heads up. with the interest I have a fair amount of sets already sold. The best part of this project for me is... I don't really make money off of these its really just a hobby to keep me busy while im not sledding. That being said ill keep producing kits while there is a demand, and when the demand withers away ill simply just stop producing. Then there's also the fact that to get a hygear set around 170+bux I think everyone's going to look at sourcing my set from here made in Canada for $85. Im just trying to help you fella's out! that's all.

Why are you including new locking collars, are the factory ones not good enough?
Just for piece of mind that the spacer won't move under load. Highly unlikely but some guys on here stated they had that problem so I wanted to be sure there no movement of the spacer on the shaft.

Well boys I took the t3 out for some approach jumping along the highway to test out the spacers and I am pleased to announce these sets are ready for production. I will be heading to the machine shop Monday morning to get the first run on the go. For those of you that have already got ahold of me I will be taking care of you first!

The first picture shows there is no longer any sag in the suspension with factory springs!
Second picture shows the t-motion linkage rite up against the bump stops. uploadfromtaptalk1450591361862.jpg uploadfromtaptalk1450591464766.jpg uploadfromtaptalk1450591508617.jpg

Just an update for you guys, I am trying to get around to everyone that wants a set. I am almost out of the first batch that were produced with great feedback!. If I haven't gotten to you yet and you have contacted me be patient I am making my rounds. The next batch is being spun on the lathe as I am typing.

Thanks for all your interest!
Don't forget to order your set!
Ride safe.
