Feeler: Camburg 4" Lift Spindles

I have me a set of All Pro Expedition leafs and a flip kit on order to go with the spindles.

 

I'm going to get those leafs too, do you need a flip kit? What does it do?

 

Do we have any word from the OP about when this is happening?

 

You don't have to get the flip kit. The flip kit just flips the u bolts up instead of down and allows you to run another polyurethane bumpstop or the Timbren bumpstops if you want to fork out the extra $200.00 for that option. I am just gonna run an updated set of bumpstops and ditch the factory bump stop and bracket.

The All Pro Expedition leaf pack is backordered until the end of this month though.

 

UPDATE: I will contact Camburg tomorrow to let them know we got 10 people to sign up and see what the plan is.

 

Bummer about the expeditions being backordered...thats what i'm planning on running in the back.

 

Me too, but i want to wait till app pro has a group buy on it and im pretty sure the leaf packs are going to be next because it was the 3rd most popular in a vote and the first two are having a group buy now.

 

Yeah that 25% off they had a few months ago was a great deal! They need to run something like that right now! Do they offer TW discounts like 10% off like some of the other vendors?

 

What's the word OP?

 

Here is the email response that I received from Camburg:

"Usually we like to have the organizer collect all of the money so
payment is in one lump sum. The addresses and contact info of all the
purchasers would be included with the payment, and from there we can
ship all the parts to each person. (Shipping Charges would have to be
calculated for those who require shipping.)"

 

This is my first rodeo with a group buy but are they saying that I am supposed to give my credit card info to someone that the only thing I know about this person is he is AWESOME for starting this group buy? No offense to you but I don't know you.... Surely there is a safer way to do this. Again OP, it's not that I don't trust you, it's that I don't know you...

 

I feel the same way..... gotta be a better way......?

 

I dont see why Camburg can't just have a list of members in the group buy and mark them off one-by-one as we call in and order and give shipping info. That is how all the other group buys I was involved in worked, even Toytec. It seems a little lazy on their part...no offense.

 

Agreed, no way am I doing a transcaction like this

 

That would be fine if we were all neighbors and paying cash. But, I am sure there will be a handful paying by credit card and paypal. Paypal charges a % on CC transactions and we don't know exact prices on shipping costs to include with the buy...so I am just going to wait for a better option I guess.

 

Ok well to get started we all have to give our zip so we can get a shipping quote.
Mine is 29451.

This is really a joke though. The only reason I could see Camburg say they want a lump sum is because they are not sure that everyone is truly committed.

 

yeah but if that is the case then they could hold our payment until all the members on the list has submitted their payment. If someone has backed out then they could let the OP know who has not went through with the payment. Then we could try and get some more people or just pay the TW price... Granted it is more work on their part but I think that is part of Great customer service which I have heard they have...

 

This is getting kinda complicated just to save $50. I'm definetly in if they will just let me call in with my CC info. On a side note, anyone know anything about the CST spindles? I heard they were coming out soon and were going to be cheaper than camburgs. A local shop is selling them on craigslist, thinking about giving them a call and finding out more info.
