I appreciate the kind words...project was over a year in the workings...the way it happened I first approached two other major big players both tried in vain but had no luck to get them made. I just could not fathom how this would be such a tough project to make.
I have a very good close relationship with A1 Cardone and have been buying direct from them for over 10 years...which is very unusual for a small mail order company like myself. They sell mostly to stores and GM
I approached them even though they make no brake drums at all......what played in my favor is the other project I convinced them to do was the brake bowl for the powermaster units which many of you have bought from us and has been a huge seller. That was done about 6-7 years ago. Matter of fact someone is driving a WE4 purchased form us that has the very first brake bowl on it.
Basically I am an idea person A1 cardone provided the $$$$$ and supplier....It is not on our website as of yet because I sold out of all the sets that Cardone got in initially last month. The only company that has some in stock right now is Mikes Monte and he only has a few sets as I could not fill his entire order.
I do a free weekly Inner Circle email to customers and those people were aware of the aluminum drums and got a special presale price if they paid before I got stock...
The retail price is $234.95 per set plus shipping. I am waiting on word from A1 Cardone when we can expect the next shipment. One reason its not on our website as of yet. We have a exclusive with Cardone for a period of time for me supplying the idea.
Its kinda of funny the aluminum brake drums is perhaps one product that needs very little explanation as we all know the benefits of them.....
