The 34mm Sanders bars are the same price as the Hollow Weltmeister bars (made by Sway-A-Way). The're $369 for the pair.Like Vaughan says they're special order and production on them moves at a glacial pace. I usually tell folks to allow 6-8 weeks for delivery....and then to write that in eraseable ink just in case. I'll work on putting these on the site..in the mean time you can just give us a buzz.

I am selling a set of Ledas for a buddy. They were used one season (rolled the car at the track at end of season). They are the remote reservoir, double adjustable units. They are valved a bit soft for full out race, although I drove his car with 450 front springs and the shocks were set too stiff for the springs and could take more spring. Setup notes from Karl are as follows:

f 0 300 450 500

valved at 300 on the front (but has a high range)

r 250 450 650

valved at 450 on the rear

for a "balanced setup" starting points (settings):

front:
14 rebound on body (24 cw full hard then back off 10 ccw)
9-10 compression (bump) on canister

rear:
12 rebound
9-10 compression


He is asking $2,400 + shipping for the struts, shocks, Hypercoils, and the Racers Edge lower shock mounts. If you needed to have them revalved (talk to Karl to see if this is neccessary) Karl charges $200 a shock, so you would still save yourself $800ish over new.

Slight Hijack - Van, did you have your Bilsteins converted to spherical mounts?

I do, Skip. Bilstein did it for me at a pretty reasonable fee when I sent them back for a rebuild last spring. I have the RE lower mounts and I used a reamer to make the upper mounting hole 1/2" - that worked like a charm.
