Anyway, I don't need the 440 series. 412's in the 11" size are what I'm after. I've already got a white bros. front spring kit so I don't need a kit for the front.

Yup, that's what I'd be after too. DCINPA, thanks for taking picking up the ball. I guess the first Q to ask them is if we all have to get the same thing to qualify for a discount. If we do, it's going to be tough getting enough folks together I guessin'.

I am sure that if someone can come up with some details on what will be available and at what price there will be a whole lot more than 15.

I have a few companies working on group pricing, one large and well-known. IF they come through with some decent pricing, this group will be able to order anything they carry at the XLForum discount.

However, we will need to set up to the table and make the first group purchase (of course, if the price is right). So be ready to go... should know something tomorrow, maybe?

Sounds promising.

Please find out form your contacts if they will ship overseas and to APO (Army Post Office ) addresses. APO is a US address used by military, DoD Civilians, and DoD COntractors living overseas.

Will do.

The well-known company is Arlen Ness. Ness is a distributor for certain models of progressive suspension, but considering the quanity, they are looking into providing it for us.

Also, they make/carry a lot of other parts, as you folks are aware. I asked them to set up discount pricing for the XLFORUM on their catalog. They seemed very interested, but it will require approval, which is being done today or Friday.

Again, I don't want to get everyone's hopes way up, but it sounds promising and if the discounts are there, it should be a win for all involved.
