Even at $350 + funds transfer I would find it difficult to afford these fittings at the moment. Looks like I'll have to make them for myself. Fortunately, I have a good mill with a DRO.

If there was evidence of interest at $325 per set, I'd build the jigs to make more than one set. Will use 7075 where possible, but will likely use buyable knobs and finding ones made of metal seems unlikely.

Lynn has seen my work on sway bar fixtures, perhaps he'll choose to comment.

Understanding that I've not made a set yet, might there be any interest if the parts were good and available in the US?

Input would be appreciated. Thanks.
