Currently I only have about 850 miles on the suspension. However, I am still very happy with everything.

Can you pass along contact information for the vendor if you do not intend to bring this to market? As always your contributions to this forum are greatly appreciated.

I'll see if he is willing to let me buy a set or two direct from the factory.

With the latest upholsterer debacle I sourced carpet kits from Australia. 10 molded sets will be here in approx. 3 weeks.

Appreciated Jason! Let me know
If you get the green light on the suspension.
 
Tweco has been around for decades. Mainly as welding accessories and consumables. Sounds like Thermal Arc, Tweco and Victor are all in bed together. This unit is a re-badged Thermal Arc (Victor owns them, IIRC)

...and ESAB bought them all, Victor, Tweco, Thermal Dynamics..... I've been using ESAB welders since 1990 when they bought out Linde and Airco. My hand plasma is ESAB but my table uses Hypertherm. I like the old stuff better than the new. Big old transformers and such. The solid state be welders they push today seem to be more fragile. My original ESAB from 1990 is still in service. My newest of the four is 12 years old.
It seems everything in the weld business is now controlled by either Miller, Lincoln or ESAB

D,

I hear ya on that ^^.

I've always been Miller for shop and Lincoln for field PERIOD... NO ALTERNATIVES! Will probably remain that way.

I have a 1974 Lincoln 200 (actually have several 200s) and I will put it against any pipeline welder in the world. (it is MODIFIED OF COURSE) It will weld a 3/8" downhill pass and is water clear on film. (NOT A CODE APPROVED PASS.. HA!)

I think they made up the codes for people that can't weld. Just a way keep the newbies from doing things their way
 
Pete,

I can get black, brown and grey

I have just sent my order in and have had a couple of guys want vinyl today. If I can add them to the order I will. AU is way ahead of us (Good Friday) So it may be Monday before I can add to my order.

Also, I can get just rolls of the vinyl they use, in I believe 54" widths. I'll have to email to confirm the width.

PM me with what you want. I can get the front, middle, cargo and tailgate for the vinyl and in LHD or RHD.

10 sets of OEM Euro 60 mirrors, mirror gaskets and 5 OEM upper tailgate lock pads are on their way...
