Redhead Steering group buy anyone? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

jks67ss396 · 10-22-2013, 11:32 AM

Hey guys

Im looking at getting a redhead steering box for my 71 c10 very soon. Looks like if they get 5 people interested in a group buy, they will knock 20 bucks off the price. Right now, they are 256, but could be 236 if i found just 4 other people interested.

Let me know if you guys are interested in something like this.

thanks guys
jeff

jks67ss396 · 10-22-2013, 11:15 PM

i was hoping to order mine on Wednesday... nobody else wants one?

mmiddle · 10-22-2013, 11:39 PM

Do you have a link? I would like more info on this

jks67ss396 · 10-22-2013, 11:45 PM

no link, but heres their website...
http://redheadsteeringgears.reachloc...563&kw=5007907

i just called and asked if they had any discounts for clubs or anything and they told me about their group buy ... just 5 people total gets 20 bucks knocked off

I imagine that we would just collect the names here and then call redhead and tell them that we have X people interested and then each guy would just call and pay for his own....

let me know if youd be interested

This is my stepfathers cousin. I am a little bias but they do great work!

swamp rat · 10-23-2013, 07:21 PM

What about core charges? what the shipping? I live close enough i planned on just stopping by sometime next spring.

darkhorse970 · 10-23-2013, 07:42 PM

I need one pending core/shipping details and costs.

67ctener · 10-24-2013, 12:42 AM

Just an FYI I heard they are the best around. I have driven 4 different vehicles with red head boxes and was very impressed.

Thats what i hear too.

MudBug · 10-24-2013, 09:27 AM

I might be in on getting one. Need to know the cost, core charge and stuff.

bpmack16 · 10-25-2013, 09:40 AM

What is the turn ratio?

leftybass209 · 10-25-2013, 09:56 AM

Turn ratio for our trucks are 14:1 or 16:1 as per availability at CPP or the equivalent.

bpmack16 · 10-25-2013, 12:31 PM

Do they have any performance ratios? I don't even know what a good performance ratio would be but just asking.

They have both ratios, you just have to request which..

swamp rat · 10-25-2013, 04:39 PM

So where is the guy who started this thread anyway?

Fish68 · 10-25-2013, 04:51 PM

I may be interested pending core/shipping.

bpmack16 · 10-25-2013, 05:02 PM

Well I am in when we figure out shipping and core. Let us know.

duallyjams · 10-25-2013, 08:44 PM

They are the best. I've done a 65 manual and a power on a 64. I would highly recommend them.

sambudo · 10-26-2013, 01:39 AM

I'd like to know what is needed to convert my strong arm to power steering. Is it possible with this box?

swamp rat · 10-26-2013, 06:28 PM

I'm guessing 9and i could be wrong) but because we didn't reply to this thread before Wednesday that he went ahead and ordered one for himself?

jks67ss396 · 10-26-2013, 06:39 PM

ha! hey guys, yes, im on a time constraint and ordered one the other day. but, feel free to get in them and if you can get 5 or more guys together, you can get a discount

core charge is 100 bucks. shipping was something like 32 bucks for me
