Any interest here in a redhead steering box group buy? Please speak up and lets all get a deal.

 

Yes, I'm interested. I'm going to replace the box on Dad's truck so want to join.

 

Im going to start a thread in '73-'79 forum,(thats my truck), so help spread the word and get all interested parties to reply there please so I dont have to run all over the board to keep up with quantities.
Thanks, Carl

 

I am half-interested. I say that because I probably still can't afford one at group discount but when you know what the details are I wouldn't mind being kept in the loop. If it's "affordable" and I magically have the available funds I would so get another one. Having two trucks sucks sometimes... It's hard to keep them both maintained. I love the redhead....steering box ha-ha

Thx,

 

I spoke with Ray at Redhead, he is going to email info to me for group buy. I will post as soon as I get it. Moderators, Ive not been posting long here so if Im over stepping my boundaries please let me know. Goin to try to set this up for just after new year as soon as the general opinion is ready. Mine is making binding noises so Ill be ready when everyone else is.

You're not overstepping anything, xring, thank you for your work! I know somebody organizes one of these group redhead purchases generally at least once a year, so, thank you for publicizing it here.

 

Great! Hopefully a lot of folks will benefit, I know I will.

 

From Redhead:

Here is a list of most of our Ford pieces. I've been told that if you have some people interested in the group buy, but do not have Fords, it will still be OK to be part of it.

From a high of $546 exchange for the 2010 (if you have a 2010 we need to know a production date) and up SuperDutys. $496 exchange for the 07 1/2 to 2009 SuperDutys. $446 exchange for the 05 to 07 1/2 SuperDutys. $356 exchange for the 2000-2004 SuperDutys. $356 exchange for the 77 1/2-79 F-250 and 350 4x4s. Also, $346 exchange for 76-79 F-150 4x4 and 78-79 Broncos. $296 exchange for the late 97-99 F-250s and F-350s with 32 splined output shafts---not with 36 spline. $266 exchange for the 80-97 1/2 F-150 through F-350 2wd, 4wd, vans, rangers, etc. $266 exchange for 1970-79 F-150, F-250, and F-350 2wd. $476 exchange for the 1965-69 2wd with BENDIX power steering gear. $326 exchange 68-75 1/2ton 4x4 with manual steering. Same for 68-75 Bronco with manual steering. $256 exchange 65-79 F-100 through F-350 2wd with manual. $396 exchange 1968-77 1/2 F-250 and 350 4x4 with and without power steering. Same steering gear, different ratio. $356 exchange 73-77 1/2 F-250 and 350 with BENDIX control valve. $346 exchange Ram cylinder for same vehicle. $356 exchange 1975 F-100 4x4 with Garrison Control Valve. $346 exchange Ram cylinder for same vehicle. $356 exchange 1968-72 F-250 and 350 with Garrison valve. $346 exchange Ram cylinder for same vehicle. $246 exchange 68-74 Econoline Van with or without power steering. Same steering gear, different ratio. $246 exchange 75-82 Econolines with Saginaw steering gears. I think that pretty much covers the Ford trucks.

Basically, we would do from 5-15 pieces --- $30 discounts on parts over $300 excluding the control valves. $20 discounts on gears under $300.
16-25 pieces --- $40 off on parts over $300 excluding the control valves. $30 discounts on gears under $300.
26-35 pieces ---- $50 off on parts over $300 excluding control valves. $40 on gears under $300.
36 pieces or more ---- $60 off on parts over $300 excluding control valves. $50 on gears under $300.

These discounts would be taken off the prices given above. Control Valves and Cylinders would count in the total number of pieces but would be discounted always at $20 off.

 

Count me in on a box for my 1985 2WD F250. $266.00 is a hell of a deal!

 

Just givin it a bump. I think around 15 interested so far, Ive included another site to try to increase units. If it works maybe shoot for second week in Jan? Whats yalls thoughts?

 

Buy dates are set, Jan 13,14,15. Call them to place your order,(800-808-1148), tell them you are part of the "group buy", and discounts will be awarded according to how many units sold. You do not have to mention the forum.
Thanks Carl

 

Just a bump fellers, maybe pick up a few more units.

 

Let's bump it again. Kick this can right on down the road. Maybe one more guy will see it.

 

Wish I had money & time & room in the garage for this right now.

 

Won't take up much room. Could put it in my attic.
