No it is not a joke. I believe so strongly in the bolt on brace that I have become a distributor for it. I will give CK5 members free shipping, all you have to do is send me a PM and buy it now on Ebay. I think that everyone should have one.
I'm certainly not looking to get rich from the steering braces. I just want everyone to know that it is out there and available, and offer it to the CK5 community. Free shipping makes it a little more affordable, and trust me, it'd be a bargin at twice the price.
Because I don't want to risk getting in trouble for pimping it on CK5, I have simply put a link in my sig line. AFAIK, it's against the rules for me to start my own post saying that I am selling them so I will not do so. Since you asked, AFIAK, it is within the rules for me to reply and answer you.
I will sell any orange CK5 member a steering brace and pay shipping anywhere in North America included in the price. If you bid on my auction, send me a PM and let me know about it and you will get it with free shipping.
I wish I'd never bought the weld patch, it's a worthless POS< but the bolt on steering brace is a great product and well worth the money. /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif
