Dan`s performance parts
hey i`m looking at buying a steering rack from Dans Performance parts in the states, anyone with any good/bad experiences from them?
The rack is the end load type & they`re suggesting it will cost $137.95 for the cast one & $178.95 for the billett one
it`s for my hillclimb buggy & i`d like to grab it now while the Aussie dollar is pretty good & i`d dearly like it fitted ready for the noosa
hillclimb 13th & 14th Nov so i`m keen as mustard to order it now
sooo,,, anyoine think i can get the same (or similar) rack cheaper or quicker anywhere else or am i onto a good thing???
cheers
Matt

Try CIP 1, Dan's didn't like doing o/s orders, all too hard. CIP 1 are fast. I'm about to go and order something now, ring if you want to get one
in the same order.

Got my gear the other day.
All was good and the shipping was fair using USPS. I would use them again.
