Default Liftbars shipping + (3) extra S4> (edit: sold)

I finally got enough time to do them all, and I have been furiously working on the last order of liftbars. (They should all ship by 7/22.)

I mistakenly cut all the pipe I had at S4 length. That meant I had to buy more for an S3! Doh! Anyhu, I had the extra material and went ahead and assembled them at the same time. So I have (3) built S4> (86.5 - 95) bar sets, ready to ship!

The S4 bars are not on sale or anything, they are just ready now, instead of made to order. I will be basically unavailable until mid august (see timing tool thread), so I will not have time to make any more until then. I will be out of town on weekdays starting next week, but I can ship them on any Saturday, PM or email me if you'd like one.

We used Joe P's set of S4 bars on my GT at Dr. Bob's last weekend and they were fantastic. Definitely the easiest/safest way to raise a shark without a hydraulic lift. I'd already ordered a set from Ken and am really looking forward to getting them. Time to do more undercar projects!

Do you have any s4 lifts left, and or are you going to be making any more?

Ron,

Right now there's (2) left. If needed I can make more, but not until next month.

After these bars are sent, I'll have (20) custom shipping boxes remaining. I guess I have to make that many.

Tell me OK and I will PayPal the money.
Thanks,

Sorry, I was away from my computer all day, yesterday.

All the bars I have made are sold, but I will be able to make more next month.

I wasn't able to do the finish welding and painting on all of the bars because I was working yesterday. I feel bad, but I may have to wait until later in the week to mail them.

The S3's are done, plus a couple of S4's. I'll email the tracking numbers later today after I pack and haul 'em to the Post Office.
