Bell Cranks I've not seen

Post by myfordcnc »

Any body know the maker of these rather cool looking bell cranks. Already bought them but was wondering what company made them. If they have other stuff like this I'd be all over it. I like that they use just the one unflanged bearing. Probably over paid but I like the design, so it does not matter.

It's crazy that you started this thread because there's a set of these for an Ultima currently on ebay and I've never heard of them before. I think they're the same as yours and from TQ Technologies:

Ya those look to be the same. What are those posts for do you think? I don't feel to bad about the price now that i see what they were being sold at the time of release. Thanks for the info I'll be watching that auction just to see what they go for. What do you think of the design?

From looking at some Ultima pics, I think the posts might got between the steering arms and top deck and act as spacers? Pic from Asso_man's thread:

I really like that design and how it clamps and only uses one bearing. Do yours have a center post that goes through each bearing like the other kits, or is it just a screw through the bearing?

My hunch us that they mount on the stock Ultima steering posts. They do look really cool, I've never seen them before.

I'm not sure if it has a central post. I've not received it yet. I hope so though. If not I'll make it so it does.
