    Sweet! I would be in for a BIG 3 ONLY kit.

    You might benefit from adding a Poll to this thread. List the different options you are interested in offering in the GB, and tally the votes as a baseline for quantities/options.

    Plus, people fucking LOVE polls here on TW. :cool:

    Polls on these group buys tend to be very overly exaggerated though... You may have 100 people respond to the poll and only 3 actually buy...

    :rofl: I learned that with my damn shirts!

    "Oh sure! I will order 200 of these goddamn things, cause obviously people want them! I will make 38 different color variants, in 10 different sizes, cause obviously people want them!"

    Here I am...$1600 later, with boxes full of shirts in my closet...smh

    i doubt the kits will come pre crimped as w a group buy there really isnt extra rev to pay the guy to crimp.

    with that said, ill run it by them.
    The thing that gets me excited is the winch cable add on, ill definately get the add on myself as there is no reason not to really. Once you guys see how flexible this cable is and how think it is you will understand.

    Put me down for Big 3 w/ winch cable. Any idea on time frame/pricing? Still need to purchase a winch so I might as well just wire it all at once.

    well the Sound deadener was a massive success. Id just like some pics of the people that have it all installed. I wanted to wait till the new years to host the group buy but if there is more than enough demand i can host it this coming monday.

    We need to spread the word so if you guys have access to other forums please let people know about this one.This kit is a huge improvement over stock and even people with STOCK alts should do it.

    I have a crimper. You should grab one of these tools for yourself. My feeling on this 'kit' is it should come preassembled 100%. Not stealing your thunder, but if you want we can work on something.

    This is the tool you need.

    So around $100 for the proper tool. And I like to soldier the ends/ terminals after they are crimped also. Then heat shrink tubing over it.

    I will talk to the owner and see what he says about preassembled and build it yourself
    i cut my cables and go to a local shop here and ask them if i can crimp and 9/10 they have no issue with it.

    AS for the winch cable add on onto the big 3 i need to get a better working average for length of cable as the distances vary. Can you guys that have winch's please post the length of your stock cables. So far its looking around 90-95 inch leads
