Upper a-arms getting cheaper

I was in Inland Trucks yesterday and the guys there informed me they dropped all there price's on thier suspension kits. The reason there doing this is because the company that makes the upper a-arms and long travel kits are mass producing the kits and will be selling them to other retail stores and to the public also. Expect the upper a-arm kits to be around $260 (ball joint) from $389 and the long travel to be under $1000. from $1,800
Expect to see these prices in the begining of 2005 and I will post any new info as I get it, like where to buy and so on.
Inland Trucks does not sell at these prices yet...

I think it's great they decided to lower prices. I thought $379 was too high.

I just bought Schaefer's original ATS A-Arms, so I'm set anyway.

I talked to Kyle at I.T. and he told me the same thing, expect alot lower price's in 05'. But you will have to buy the kits from the shop that makes them to get the lowest price ($ 260.) and its about time, all these companys making a-arm kits are way over priced for only a couple more inches of travel.

Cool!!! I want an LT kit for my DD (so I can swap in a Tundra or T100 rear axle) but may settle on some cheap upper arms.

Definatley keep us posted.
