I havent got the seats yet, they are in the mail, but they cost me 430 shipped. but i got a really good price on them as PRP lists them as 220 each before shipping.

Im running my uper link on the passenger side, which is going to be quite the project in its self. I will get to bypass the fuel and brake lines, and i dont have to weld to the cast of the housing, which is good. But I have to do some custom exhaust relocation for it to fit.

Bought my linkage for the 1354 today, all in all the manual 1354 cost me $130, and i dont have a weird CV flange in the front anymore, since my manual 1354 is from a 91 explorer.

I had them made. Suicidedoors.com has really really good prices. Im going to have them make my upper link also.

I couldnt pass them up as they are 2" .25 wall DOM links all tig welded with super pivots on both ends for about 140 each.

thanks to stic-o i just bought these for my rear bumper.\

 

[JoshC]

I guess he made them for you?? Nice. For those watching that don't know, when you buy/make some of these be sure to get them long enough to weld on the back side of the bumper, not just outside face.
