Default Blaszak contact info

I have tried to email and call Marcus Blaszak about a set of control arms, and the email bounced back, and when I called the phone # on the website, it rang and rang and made a noise as if it were a fax #.

Does anyone have updated contact info for him?

Thank you,
Chris

Well, that would explain things!

How about this: does anyone have a set of the Blaszak-modified late offset steel control arms available for sale?

If so, PM me.

Thanks,
Chris

Did see a couple of other sets of aftermarket race control arms on here recently. Racers Edge and the rare as Hen's teeth Charlie Arms. Weren't bargain basement prices but possibly worth your consideration.

Hi Patrick,

I did see the recent ads for the arms that you mentioned, and they are good deals. The problem is, I am pretty much limited to arms that accept early-style bolt-on ball joints due to the spindle modifications that I outlined in this thread:

https://rennlist.com/forums/944-turb...ht=roll+center

I can't get enough negative camber with the early offset arms and late offset spindles, and the Ground Control struts are not designed for camber adjustment at the spindle (I don't like adjusting it there anyway as the bolts loosen/slip with heavy track use). So, I need to bite the bullet and go full later offset. I will likely go the High Strung 44 route, but I am hoping to find a reasonable set of Blaszak arms if available, as I have proven that the early steel arms are plenty strong for my use at this time.

Do you have an email address or phone #? Though I don't want to bug him if he's not making stuff anymore.

Thanks,
Chris

The easiest way to get a hold of Blaszak is through email at:

Thanks for the info, I emailed Markus at the above address and got a quick response. I already have a used set of his arms en route from a Rennlister, but he was kind enough to tell me exactly what size and type of replacement rod ends to get . . . . they aren't cheap, but it will be worth it for safety and peace of mind.

It does sound like he is still in business, so contact him with your needs.

Thanks,
Chris

He is really a great guy to work with, very knowledgeable, and always responds very quickly.
