Redhead Steering Group Buy

Some of the guys in the 7.3 diesel section are looking to do a group buy on Redhead Steering Gearboxes. I'm justing checking in here to see what the interest is so that we can do a coordinated group buy to hit the magic number of 36 pieces. If we hit 36 pieces or more then it is $60 discount on parts over $300 and $50 discount on parts under $300.

Lets get the ball rolling on this. Post up if you are in.

I'm gonna give this 2-3 weeks to gauge interest and collect a list of interested buyers. Once we have a solid list, then I'll schedule our three day buying window with Redhead Steering. Unfortunately it is only a 3 day window to buy at this discount once we are scheduled. If we do not meet the 36 pieces requirement then I'll check with all interested parties if they would like to continue at a lower discount.

On the list.

Depending on when, I'm definitely in. I'm a few weeks out from having the cash though.

my bad, didn't post up the time frame. We figured it would be hard for everyone to just say in without giving people notice. It would be probably a month or so before the order dates are set.

question rephrased; will it matter which redhead box you needed in order to qualify for the group buy,or do all boxes need to be for the same vehicle.if so,then what 7.3l diesel section are you referring to specifically?

Good question. Any gearbox that you see in their inventory would qualify for the group buy. Even a gearbox from a non Ford product would qualify.

the interest for this group buy started in the 99-03 7.3 section. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...ering-box.html

to hit the 36 number I've posted in various sections on the forum to try gain more interest.

Sorry for not clarifying myself.

Anyone else interested, still need another solid 10 people to hit the 36 mark.
