Well, let me know if you're interested. My buddy is in Indy right now for some show (isn't PRI at the end of the year?), so I'll have to wait until Sunday evening or Monday before I can find out if he can do any better than 20% off list, plus shipping. For those unfamiliar with PSC, search. Their website is www.pscpowersteer.com . The current owner is Tom Allen, who also started AGR. I've never seen or heard anything negative on their products (PSC). Let me know if you're interested. We need a minimum of 5. I should have mine in sometime next week.

For Dave:

For anybody interested in some PSC products (http://www.pscpowersteer.com/) can contact Jeff Allen at (817) 226-8688 or via e-mail for now at jeffallen@noboundaries4x4.com . He will be taking over that aspect of the business very shortly. He's a good buddy of mine, so tell him that Gabe sent you.

I'm pretty sure I can get him down a little lower than 20% too. He likes his porn, so maybe people could offer him 75% of cost and your old porn! :shock:

Damn, and I just threw away a bunch of porn!!

If you could throw his contact info up in the first post for me I'd appreciate it. I made a few updates to the group buy policy.

Same here, I'd like to know what the final price is gonna be.

So at the very most, it would be $272 plus shipping for the 621MR and $236 plus shipping for the 621M. Not too bad, let us know if it will be cheaper. I may be interested. My steering box is having some issues, may be worth it if the price is right.

What's the difference between the two boxes? One is hydro assist? Can someone enlighten me as to the difference between hydro assist boxes and the regular boxes? I'm woefully ignorant as to the functions of various steering systems. I thought hydro assist was a hydraulic ram for some reason. I'd like something that's more powerful than stock, but I've heard stuff about "dead spots" with the hydro assist box. If that's the case, would it be better for me to run the non-hydro assist box? Or are there no dead spots?

ggruszynski
02-05-2005, 10:32 AM
The M is not tapped for hydro-assist and the MR is. You can cap off the ports on the MR and it acts just like the M. Would just make it easier to upgrade to hydro-assist if you ever wanted to in the future.

I'm working on it.

ggruszynski
02-14-2005, 06:55 PM
Contact Jeff Allen at (817) 226-8688 or via e-mail for now at jeffallen@noboundaries4x4.com . He can take all major credit cards (except Discover) and paypal. He should be able to work on prices for all of their products.

So this is not really a group buy, just a good deal. With a group buy, it's normally something like 1-5 orders is x price, 6-10 is y price... gets cheaper the more orders.

Anywho... emailed Jeff.

ggruszynski
02-14-2005, 10:28 PM
If Jeff takes too long, let me know. I've also spoken to Tom (his dad and owner) and he'll also work with us on this.

Gabe

Group buy or good deal, doesn't matter to me, I'll take it. E-mail sent this afternoon.

Thanks Gabe. :D

ATL ZJ
02-15-2005, 03:30 AM
How long will this offer stand? I'd rather wait til summer when the cash flows a little more smoothly. Especially if this isn't a true group buy but more of an individual good deal.. Hopefully he can still give me the 20% off come May or June. Am I correct in assuming this?

ggruszynski
02-15-2005, 08:58 AM
Not sure how long this will last. Prices on these are going up this or next week. After hearing what their cost is on this, it's a great deal!

That sucks. But I will have to wait... Thanks anyway I guess.

Not sure if it will go up for us or not, but the list price will be increasing to $355.

What's the price after all is said and done? Did anyone ask yet?

ggruszynski
02-15-2005, 12:45 PM
Talk to Jeff. If he's slow in getting back to you, I'll give you Tom's contact information. He's a good guy who really knows his sh@t!

nate
02-17-2005, 02:09 PM
Haven't been able to get ahold of Jeff. No answer on that phone # and no reply to the emails I sent him.

ggruszynski
02-17-2005, 02:30 PM
I'll contact Tom and see how he wants to do the group buy. It will be a true group buy if going through him.

This isn't exactly how I wanted the 1st group buy on here to go down.

He needs 5 buyers to do $275 for the 621MR. This is $80 off the price currently on their web site.

DND
02-17-2005, 06:03 PM
How are the numbers for commited buyers looking and for which box? And are we only going 621MR?

I was thinking 621M - non ported. But if this turns into a genuine group buy I could go 621MR to help ensure the minimum is reached.

I see no reason to not get the ported box. Jeeps tend to get bigger than you originally plan for them to. I remember when I wanted to stick with 31s permanently. Having that expandability there will be a very welcome asset. I'm in for the 621MR... still

For both Tom and Jeff? I know Tom can usually reached by phone and can be slow to respond to e-mails as he pretty much runs everything right now (think he may have some help). Let me know if you hear from them. I'll send them both an e-mail now.

Anybody heard anything? Gabe?

Seems we've only got three serious buyers so far- norcaljr, ATLZJ, and myself - what about Jim311, nate, BIG DAVE, GoingOffRoading, and jsteves. All seemed interested earlier. Come on guys, don't let this die. Dirk get in here, you know you want one.

Headed out for spring break next week, so finances will depend on how much money I spend on booze and strippers. I've got other projects going on right now that come before the steering box.. like completing my 8.8 install. Maybe in the future?

I hear that, my Jeep fund has taken a pounding in the last while too.

Two more guys gotta Pony up here. Guess it's all for nothing if the vendor doesn't participate though. :(

Sorry Dave,

I can't I just got a great deal on a Tera knuckle and picked up a front and rear Addco sway bars, so my Jeep fund is WAY down!!!!!!!!!

Now if someone wants to purchase some Amsoil, or some of my Jeep CD's that would of course help out my fund :supz:

I just put out an e-mail to both Tom & Jeff.

If the S&H costs are within reasonable limits, I will be in on this by

Sorry guys, just saw the replies. I'll try to get something worked out on shipping, because last I spoke with Tom, he said he needed the 5 people and would ship to 1 address, and I personally don't want to have to take care of shipping all of these.

If you call to order it, tell him your from JU and you will get a little discount because he is a vendor over there.

Lots of the lil' stuff that's hard to find and I don't want to pay shipping for and often don't have time to "hunt around"; they're only about an hour from me. Maybe I should just steal the JU server, put it out of its misery and be done with it! ;)

I am still interested in the PSc steering box.

I got an email from Jeff today:

Hey Nathan email has been down we are in the process of changing our
name
and website here at my 4wd shop. A 621mr retails for 350.00 I can do it
with
a group buy of 5 gears for 299.00


So is it $299 like in the email, or $275?

DND
02-28-2005, 03:19 PM
Hey Nate,

Looks like the group buy is struggling. I received a similar e-mail from Jeff -

Hey Dave, email was down, we are in the process of changing our name and website address.
621M I can do for 258.00, this box retails ar 300.00. I can do this offer
with a group buy of 5 or more

Thanks

At the time I was still thinking 621M, but I'm still up for the ported unit if that's what it takes to make group-buy work. Unless we can get 5 buyers together and someone to act as a single delivery address, I think this horse might be dead.

Dave

ggruszynski
02-28-2005, 04:01 PM
Think that's the price including shipping. The $275 price was to ship it to one location, and that person to distribute them.

nate
02-28-2005, 04:06 PM
So no one wants to deal with shipping the boxes out? I would do it, but I'm sure no one wants to pay out the ass for shipping from Alaska.

$300 for the 621MR shipped is not bad. If more people want a 621M, I could go with that. I figured may as well get it tapped so in the future it will be easy to do hydro steering.

So 4 people are on this buy so far... me, norcaljr, ATLZJ, and DND... anyone else? For the 621MR or M?

Cue-Ball
02-28-2005, 04:13 PM
I can't swing the cash for one of the gears right now but would be willing to have them shipped to me and then distribute them.

I am in Napa, Ca. I would just need to be covered for the shipping charges.

Just an idea.
