quality lathe work

Postby Moogling » Wed Feb 05, 2014 8:15 pm

Some of the last bits for Ellie (my IIB) turned up today

Wheel studs for holding the step on - with the earlier type thread (double sided nuts)

A bit of a plug for Abtech Engineering who did this work for me!

Nice I'm now possibly getting some made up for my 101 deeper ones to bring step out further in deeper offset rims.

Hi moogling,
I know this is an old thread, but i'm looking to get some extended nuts made up myself, do you mind if i ask how much (roughly) you paid to get them done? Just so i know if i'm being seen off...
Thanks
Mike

I paid £100 to a local chap who does work for my mothers company. I don't know if that was expensive or cheap, but I was happy.
