[TR] TR-3/4/5/6 Aluminum hubs Commercial message

[Tony Drews]

uncle jack's racing Aluminum front hubs are going back into 
production for a limited quantity run.

These are a revised design that I've been testing on my TR-4 race car 
all season.  We are using a different set of inner bearings than the 
prior aluminum hubs used, but they have the same high load rating and 
are about half of the cost.  These hubs eliminate a significant 
weakness in the stock hubs between the inner and outer flange.  They 
incorporate very high load rating, larger than stock Timken bearings 
which eliminates the bearing failure issues that are present with 
stock bearings when using sticky tires.  I have been running set with 
bearings of this load rating from 2003 through 2009 (before running 
the prototypes this year) and can detect no wear in the bearings.  I 
drive them HARD, and am not afraid to use the curbs.

I'm taking pre-orders at this time - no deposits yet.  But, please 
don't pre-order a set if you don't really intend to buy them.  This 
is a very significant investment for me, and I need to gauge the 
level of interest.

Here's how the pricing shakes out (US dollars):
A) Bare hubs: $175.00 each / $350.00 per pair
B) Hubs with Timken races and ARP studs installed: $280.00 each / 
$560.00 per pair
C) Hubs with all bearings, seals, dust caps and ARP studs installed: 
$370.00 each / $740.00 per pair

For folks who order these hubs, if you already have the heavy duty 
axle kit, I'll supply a pair of bearing spacers that will work with 
these hubs for $40 per pair.

If you don't already have a set of the Heavy Duty front axles, I'll 
supply the axle kit along with the hubs for $150 per pair.  These are 
the lowest prices for the axle kits that have been offered.

Shipping is a flat $20 in the continental US, $35 to Canada, and 
other international shipping is probably $50 - at least to Germany or 
to Australia.

The hubs are designed to accept ARP 1/2" x 3" studs, but ARP 7/16" x 
3.2" studs can be specified.  7/16" is the stock diameter.

If you're interested, please send an e-mail to tony at tonydrews.com 
with the following info:
*  Which set you're interested in (A, B or C)
*  How many hubs are desired (2 would be assumed)
*  Stud diameter desired
*  Are spacers needed?

Thanks for your interest,
