I was talking to Tim from suspension online tonight. He wanted me to let you nnbs guys know that McGaughys has a new adjustable strut that allows up to a 2" drop. For more info hit up Tim.

no actually they built a coil relocator that uses the quality factory shocks not an offshore cheep shock that they pay 20 bucks to have made. whats a better strut a factory gm strut or an offshore cheepy. hey bells strut may have been the way you guys thought was best but after using them and having to replace one at 10000 miles i say thumbs down. and the guy at bell told me they wont replace the strut that went bad. all well thats what you get when you deal with them, i also know that they dont have any struts in stock because i tried ordering one from there distributer and they told me out of stock till end of febuary. i just started selling these new relocators this week and have already sold all 25 pairs i originally purchased from mcgaughys.

dam man thanks for the rip so all its doing is moving the spring lower down good idea.

so you know the belltech (offshore junk) is made by kw suspension in germany.

im glad you like the product and thats all that matters. You sold 25 sets cant wait to see the feedback from others here that got it. Its a good idea and priced very well im sure.

and so you know my comment above was meaning they had to do something to compete which would make them money which this does.

maybe but the guys before you make it sound like mcgaughys copies everyones stuff
heres facts
belltech copied mcgaughys spindle 2 and was shut down in federal court
djm copied mcgaughys spindle and was shut down in federal court
doestech (spelling) copied and a similar outcome came out of it
to this date i dont know why people assume mcgaughys copied everything they got i still have not seen them copy someone elses product they come up with a different way of doing something.
not baging you tony so dont think i am but the guys before you sure make it seem like mcgaughys copied somebodys product, and they havent even seen it yet they just jump to a conclusion.

.

Tim quick question who said that djm and belltech copied mchaughys design? Was is someone at Mcgaughys? Id like to talk to them because ive heard this a few times and djm never even went to court over that and that is allways news to belltech

Since I sell both products and would love to find out if this info is all true.


So was the court case for the 99-07 spindles or the 07 up spindles??????????????????

if it went to FEDERAL court it can be accessed online? do you have any links??????????????


Thanks man same thing if I said someting about mcgaughys that wasnt true you would want to pinpoint who gave that info to me. Its just out of respect to other vendors.

your right about djm i forgot that they never when to court djm did sease and dismiss that they did not try to fight it
bell did get a court date but never got that far because of the lambo door case they had going already ( they couldnt afford 2 cases at once is the rumor) that's info i have from a few years ago. i do know that bell changed there design 2 times.i also know that bell does not have a lot of there employees left that would remeber these times its mostly a bunch of new guys working there. you can correct me if im wrong but one of there top employees they had has been working for mcgaughys for about 3yrs now and i think he worked at bell for over 15yrs
also its not who said its they did i think i still have a bell and djm copied spindle (that they no longer make)

yes he used to work at belltech and he knew abel there also (long story lol) I talked to him at sema.



Id like to find out some sort of paper work for all these court cases since it would be avil online especailly since you said its a federal case.

and it is about who said it because if its not true its not true. Ill call mcgaughys on monday and out or respect to all people djm/belltech/mcgaughys I want to find out whats going on. Ill just use this post as a reference for all parties. Is there someone at Mcgaughys I can speak to that you can direct me to?

Also please post the spindles your talking about which DJM would love to see also. DJM stamps and belltech stamps all their spindles and would be great to see how the copied parts look to put some proof behind what your saying. (if you think you still have them).

I'd just really appreciate it. I forwarded this link to DJM so they are updated on everything thats being said so we can get their names clear of these lies.
