Fatman steering arms
Anybody have a pair they want to part with for a shoebox? I'm not interested in buying new from a vendor as i feel they're way overpriced

Re: Fatman steering arms
One of the reasons I retired from the hot rod chassis business. Also did Fatman change ownership?

Re: Fatman steering arms
Sadly, it will reach the point where these specialty parts and other hot rod parts will no longer be made because of the shrinking market and the high manufacturing cost. For example, a new repro. 1940 DeLuxe Ford grille now costs $1300.

Saw a new Drake 40 standard grille on the HAMB for $25/2600. I confess I think I paid $15/1600 from Drake when he had them last year.

Re: Fatman steering arms
Make your own; they certainly are not overly complex and are constructed out of normal materials.

Some of us are still doing it. However, suspension work does take some serious skill sets in planning, geometry, cutting, machining and welding. The last thing any of us would want to do would be to create a piece of equipment that is an accident waiting to happen |
