looking good WAX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[revelation2]

whoa, those look awesome

[boxcar182]

How much are these beauties gonna cost?

[Jam]

those are lookin Sweeeet. I hope they don't run too much like Smokey's though.

[wilder]

is the pivot replaceable? i ask becuase of the nut close to it. that would be kind of cool incase you wanted to switch baseplates (like to crail's). the truck looks sweet though.

and im assuming theyre going to be around the same price for the smokey hangars.

the pivot is adjustable, wheich allows you to line up the kingpin hole on a radal dh or 180 plates. I

Two questions
If you dont mind telling everyone what changes were made?
How soon will you be getting around to making baseplates? Is that the next project for you?

[skatardude10]

Neato! Very nice looking

[Captain Matt]

beautiful man

[SpeedFiend]

They look real nice and I love that they are American Made.

The pivot is adjustable so you can put them in different baseplates...stock they can go in Randall, UB, Force, Pogo etc...
I think to go into Holey or Crail I will need to make new pivots, but thats pretty simple..
the other changes were thickness and a machined radius inside the axle bore to recess the threads 1/8 inch into the hangar to make that even tougher, and the slight bevel on the ends...

price will be $219 with bearings
$199 without

The baseplates when they come out (no date promises, as I have lots going on right now...) will have the option of either running a spherical bearing with a pivot pin that drops in to them, or a machined Delrin pivot cup that accepts the standard ball pivot.

[satori]

so is the hanger less beefy now? still safe at 50?

i can't wait to get some from you but probably can't until summer. i got to hop on some and they feel really nice. should last a lifetime!

...the other changes were thickness...

[WAX]

They are still super strong...we had .08 more widht than I wanted...still great over 50...

as for being like the Smokies...2 people that have the first sets of FUKS have sold off their Smokies if that is any indication of their performance

[HerBDerb]

price will be $219 with bearings
$199 without

Is the bearing removable?
Like, if I get a set with bearings and decide that I don't like it, could I take them out?

[Dubester]

i am one of them and dont regret it a bit , these things are tits , just need some cnc plates now

[WAX]

the bearings are press fit and locked in with retaining compound..it takes a lot to ge tthem out, but yes, if you didnt like them you could press them out

I ran my Flushcut with bearing fromt, non bearing back and they were great, but I am riding my topmount with bearings front and back and they are great..

[oldnbroken]

Could you make them a little more burly?

[Steve D.]

do you need any proto testers?

[Mile_High_Mark]

Is it true that that can be polished with Kleenex?
