Again these have the same dimensions as the originals but not the same profile but it is close.

Do you have a set of the hub dials available? Do you sell the o-rings too? I have everything ready to rebuild my front axle, and would like a set of these.

GMCGrim 11-08-2016 09:54 PM

Re: Interest in aluminum hub knobs?
 
Hey guys, I don't have anymore 3/4 ton dials but you could check with Torque
King 4x4 and ask for Roy.

I just googled them and they're on their site. Did you sell your design or do you supply them? Either way I hope it works out good for you. I love the set I got from you.

Re: Interest in aluminum hub knobs?
 
It looks like Quad4x4 must have gotten bought out?

GMCGrim 11-09-2016 08:55 PM

Re: Interest in aluminum hub knobs?
 
Quad 4x4 is now Torque King 4x4. Anyway if they don't have any I just may have to get some more made.

I do not have any more right now but I was considering making more of the 3/4 ton and 1/2 ton ones. I will surely let everyone know when I do.

Thanks Dave, Ok guys I am working on more 3/4 ton and 1/2 ton ones. For now there will be ten sets of each. Once made I still have to get them anodized.
I hope to have them available around the second week of April. Stay tuned!

Not possible, sorry. Unless I want find myself in court. Wes from Classic Heartbeat had the same idea but when he contacted Dana/Spicer they wanted a substantial amount of money before production even began.

I actually thought about having some anodized red but the shade of red that the anodizer has is not the same shade of red as the original Ford ones.

Message sent. Very interested in claiming a set in this recent batch your having made!

undertaker72 04-16-2018 06:53 AM

Re: Interest in aluminum hub knobs?
 
I would like to get on your list , for at least one pair , 2 if possible thank you

GMCGrim 05-10-2018 08:39 PM

Re: Interest in aluminum hub knobs?
 
Ok Guys the hubs should be ready in a couple of weeks then one week for the anodizer. There will be only ten sets made right now with the possibility of more later. The person making them is slammed with other projects. I hope this is not holding up the completion of any projects.

I'd like a set for my truck. Do you sell the proper o-rings for them too?

No, the original ones are not available any more but there is a company close to me that sells some that are real close to the originals. If you want I can give you the name of the company and the part number. You might be able to find some close to you.

Ok thanks. Let me know when the hubs are ready to sell a set, and I'd like the info for the o-rings too. Thanks!
