If you've wanted to do the trackbrackets C5 or C6 conversion, this is the lowest price we've ever offered on these. If you think you might buy a 4th gen in the future, you might want to put a set on the shelf for a rainy day.
Trackbrackets C5/C6 (C6 Z51 and C6 Z06) conversion brackets with bolts (you'll still need the calipers, PAB's, pads, etc. Feel free to ask questions if the sticky doesn't answer them for you). $130 shipped in the 48 states. If you buy 2 sets, I'll knock that down to $120 a set (and no paypal fees on either price). Thanks!!! |

This special still going on? I just called LGM and they want $299 for the version which doesn't require cutting the ear off the spindle. What do you use to cut the ear off and how do you prevent stress risers due to the cut (their concern)?

I would worry about stress risers if you were cutting into the part, but you are just cutting off a mounting boss that sticks out. Its that simple. I used a 3" air cutoff wheel. I run the trackbrackets on my street car and race car and never one problem. |

The price is still valid (sorry I didn't see this until now, I've been remodeling a bathroom this weekend).
And, as already stated, a cutoff wheel seems to work the best for cutting the spindle. |

My approach to avoiding stress risers was a smooth cut (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
I marked my cut line, used a cutoff wheel to start it at the right angle (since a saw blade will just walk if it isn't close to perpendicular), then switched to a Sawzall with oil to complete the cut a lot faster (consuming one fresh blade per side). I used an angle grinder to smooth and deburr the cut. I may have followed that up by hammering the cut surface with a ball peen hammer, but I'm not positive. |

More trimming of the knuckle on the early cars, but yes, once the ears are cut off the Trackbrackets bolt on the same as on the late cars. 4.5" angle grinder with a cutoff wheel, or a Sawzall with a tungsten carbide blade, and cleanup with a flap disc, will do the job. |

Thanks Alan.
And sadly, the sale has ended and wholesale has gone back to "normal". I'll have to check for the current price (or Alan can get you a set as well). |
