lars bars fixture

[68olblue]

Hey Bronco buddies! Anyone have a Lars Bar Fixture lying around after their build? Im going to be making a set soon and I didn't want to re-invent the wheel. Anyone close to Auburn?

Ask Lars who has his.

Anyone ever tried to replicate the factory 9-10* offset into their frame mounted bracket for their extended radius arms? Rather than bend the tubing? WFO concepts said they could make a bracket for $40.

Hey, Gil- I don't know myself who has my jig now. Someone in your part of the world, I think. Jerry, maybe? If anyone who knows where it is sees this, PM me with the location, thanks!

Re: lars bars fixture

I got Lars rear shock mount jig I need to get back. Get the bars jig to me since I go to Nevada City on the weekends. Then I can drive down to a hanger and return them once done

E-mail sent. PM wasn't working for me for some reason. Paul

I got the jig from Lars and took to JimGo in San Jose. If it could get to me tonight I can take to hanger at break of day. (Jim, maybe we could meet someplace and I can get the carpet and shafts too.)

No worries, Henry. If Jim & crew are still using it, they are welcome to hang on to it.

Re: lars bars fixture

There's the hope of having another "Bar Party" at Jim's in San Jose to build some more sets. Did it last year and had a good time.
Timing is not etched in stone yet, but should be sometime soon I would think.
We can keep you apprised of any schedules olBlue, if you don't mind that 2 1/2 hr drive to get the job done.
The more the merrier.

Of course, then there's the drive back too! Got family down this way you been meaning to visit?

Re: lars bars fixture

I'm down I'll bring lots of beer

[DirtDonk]

Re: lars bars fixture

Sounds good.
Hmm, benders, welders and beer. Sounds like a mean combination.
I'll bring the burn salve and band-aids! Then again, if we let Jim do all the welding, and just sit back and "supervise", then we can save all the band-aids for him!

I'll let you know as soon as I hear more detailed info.

Re: lars bars fixture

I now remember JimGo mentioning another arm party during the BBQ. He was hinting at having me show up to run the lathe again to slot the tubing.

Re: lars bars fixture

Ahh, so you're the Lathe Runner, eh?
In that case, good excuse for you to be there, even though you've already got your set.

He's a busy boy right now though, so we'll see how long it takes.
Now, if only he hadn't sold that last Bronco... You listening Jimbo?

Re: lars bars fixture

I meant mill, not lathe. Jim does have a lathe, however.
