J.D. Blackwell Posted May 5, 2005 Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 I was wondering if of you guys have ordered from Quicksand Motorsports lately? Reaon I ask is because I ordered a set of A-arms April 5th and Gary or whoever the guy was said it would only be about 2 weeks since I wanted them bare metal and no plating or coating. Well, its been almost a month now. I've called, but nothing but an answering machine. So I was wondering if you guys have had any trouble getting your parts from him. I know he billed my credit card the day I ordered them, because I got my CC statement in the other day. JD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brock_fuzzy_69 Posted May 5, 2005 Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 gary makes some super nice stuff on occasion he is late at delivery but the product is good enough that you wont mind when you have it in hand if i remember right he is a certified welder and works in the aerospace industry and does quicksand on the side so from time to time he is swamped with work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rebelbanshee2 Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 (edited) I lost contact with him in the same timeframe you did. We were emailing about an A-arm i thought i tweaked alittle. I havnt been able to call him yet, but it sounds like I wouldnt be able to get ahold of him anyway...Hopefully it doesnt become a problem Those sand draggon arms look rediculously identical to Jannsen A-arms..I see an Inland ATV sticker on your racks..are you affiliated with them??

squish Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 I dont know about that. That looks like the arm is at an angle to the pivot tube. Looks like to make it straight you would have to thread the top one in and take a shit load out the other one. Mine arent like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
