I have looked at Boss 304s (not fond of anything else from them at this point). I don't mind taking the hub metal down if needed.

Thanks in advance.

Coys????

Just to clarify.... and don't feel bad because I haven't really been pushing the "Mild Dropmember", and not a lot of people know about it, but the link provided by SCOTI is for our stage 2 components. The Mild Dropmember is a replacement crossmember that is between the Stage2 and the extreme Dropmember kits, as far as drop is concerned. When deflated it leaves the frame right between 2 and 3 inches off the ground. Ride height is right around 6". No notching of the frame for rack clearance and the motor is not raised. There will be plenty more info on it after the first of the year... and the "Touring" version as well.

SCOTI · 12-17-2011, 02:05 PM

My bad.... I saw the word 'mild' & thought of the kits that utilized the stock front x-member & used the mild bolt-in rear notch set-up vs the step-notch set-ups.

You can dock me for the week

You can come out of "time out" now. Try not to let it happen again.

gringoloco · 12-17-2011, 02:04 PM

Saweet! I have a TON of questions, but will refrain until official release, as I'm sure most will be answered... buuuuuut... Let me be the first to ask:

So, about two weeks?!

Believe it or not, this has been "done" and we have been selling them for a while now.

But... if you want one built we are closer to "three weeks" than "two". LOL

Gonna have to coin a new phrase: "Three Weeks".

Holding out on us, I see

I have seen the sneak previews on 'other' sites, but none here yet. Ready for some updates, pics, and questions answered, so I can decide if we should start the three week countdown...

Here's one.

Nobaddaze · 12-20-2011, 03:57 PM

hey DM Guys...Ive got a quick question...Im going to look at a donor truck that has a PB Dropmember and A-arms on it tonight. My question is that i see people have different versions of dropmembers (like version 3.2 for example) What are the differences between these models and is there anything i should look out for when checking this truck out? Ive never actually seen a dropmember in person before and i dont want to go into it blind.

any advice would be appreciated. Thanks

The newest version (3.2) is the round tube set-up. The other two designs are plate. Only differences between them are the way that the lower control arms attach, and motor mount tabs.

The 3.2 also has a truss system (ties the inner frame supports, motor mounts, and main crossmember assembly together for additional rigidity).

When you get there, feel free to shoot me a call or a text and I can let you know what generation it is.
