Re: Spare tyre carrier spacer.

Hi amts,

Can you put me down for a set of 20mm spacers?
My spare is in the back at the moment. I was going to make some up, but yours look so good, I would like to go with them.

If a set is available, can you let me know your deposit details, and I can get the loot to you straight away.

Thanks.

Re: Spare tyre carrier spacer.

Hi JGD,
Thanks for letting me know!

Davros (Steve)
Did you choose the 20mm spacers because all of the 12.7mm spacers have been taken up? The reason for asking is that I can now organise the manufacture of the thinner spacers for $54 a set instead of $46 as I would be buying the ally material since the freebies have run out. I have put you down on the 20mm list anyway but if you want to go the thinner spacers, I can start a new lot.

The new pricing now is:
12mm $54
20mm $59

Hi again,

I chose the 20mm spacers based on someone elses post that they work with BFG AT 275/65/17, which is what I ended up getting fitted this week.
If 12mm will work, than that is great. I am not sure.

Hi Steve,
You will need 20mm spacers. And that is the safer option if members are undecided on which tyre size they want to go with.

EDIT: I have moved this list to page 18 so that it would be more visible.

I'm starting up a new list for the next batch as all the spacers for mid July ETA has been allocated.
The spacers look like this prior to being anodised black.

12mm list $54 + $10 post

20mm list $59 + $10 post

Operation dezzert storm - MIA

I'm putting this post up in case other people can help locate and get in contact with PP member "dezzert storm". I have tried to PM and email him (via PP) and am not getting any response regarding his spacers being ready. So if anyone knows him personally, can you get him to contact me? Thanks all.

Re: Spare tyre carrier spacer.

Hi Everyone,

I contacted the machinist today (as his son is due back next monday) to find out the ETA for the machining of the spacers. I have been told that it will be done by mid-July :cry: I'm sorry that it has taken this long to get this batch out. I know many are hanging out for it.

The other issue is that our family is going up to the Gold Coast on 21st July for a weeklong holiday. If all the planets are aligned, then I'm hoping that I will be posting these out in the morning of the 21st. If not, we get back on the 28th and I will get onto it first thing.

Thank you all for your understanding. I wish he hadn't gone on holiday but he hasn't had a holiday for a looong time.

Regards
Andrew

No worries as far as I am concerned. It is good of you get this whole thing organised.

Have a good holiday.

Andrew, same as the leader of the Daleks "No worries". Thanks for saving me the trouble of making these up.

No problems here. I don't mind waiting as you must have spent a lot of time and effort on this already. Thanks very much and hope you have a great holiday.

No problems here either.

Will arrange payment soon as well.

Re: Spare tyre carrier spacer.

Breaking news: dezzert storm has been found alive and well.

In other news: Is anyone else interested in the next set of spacers? Otherwise, it could be a long wait for wilko76. Unfortunately, I'm not in the business of making the spacers for money, so I can't exaclty make up a batch in advance and not knowing if they are all going to be allocated.

Re: Spare tyre carrier spacer.

A spot has freed up for the 12.7mm spacers if anyone wants to put their hand up.

Edit: Last spacer has been taken up.

Re: Spare tyre carrier spacer.

amts: apologies for the delayed request, I've been away a lot lately. If there is still a 20mm set available (or if there's a cancellation) I'd like to order one of these please (will likely go with 275/65 tyres shortly).

If I've missed out, serves me right!

Cheers,
Sunday

Re: Spare tyre carrier spacer.

Hi Sunday,
I've added you to the list for the next batch. Hopefully there is enough interest to make up the next batch of 9 sets.
