Alex, it would be great if we could get more info/sales on these ball joints that I believe Kerscher is the only one who makes them. I have a set but would like an extra pair also. These are a must have for the 944 to 1303 conversion.

I would be interested if i can also source the brakes and all parts for under $700 complete(front and rear)

how much do you think the ball joints would be if there was a group buy?
And also, why do you need the ball joints for this mod? is there a article on the adaption of 944 brakes to a 1303? will a full explanation of how and why things need to be done?.... You can never know to much, and you must try, or you will only wonder why

[Alex]

I will look into it if we can get more people interested.

I will call Kerscher and see what they can offer.

I'll need a pair of these ball joints. How much do they cost anyway? Any idea how much they'd cost in a group buy situation?

[Alex]

I talked to Kerscher today and they would help us with a group deal.

They are listed for 47 Euros.
They could not tell me on how much it would be cheaper yet and I do not have any details but I am hoping that this would work out similar to the Cup brace deal.

So I need a list on who is interested so I can talk to Kerscher on how many would buy a set.

Thanks,

Alex, (or any one) can you direct me to a page that tells you EXACTLY what i would need to do a 944 brake swap on a 1303 super beetle? I am still interested in the ball joints if we all can get them for a resonable price and if i can figure out what i need to do this brake swap.

Thanks Alex

Any one????

[Alex]

Kerscher wants me to handle everything......even payment.
I really do not want to do that. They told me once that is all setup they will give me a price depending on how many are interested in them.

From my end it is a no go.....because I do not want to get involved the money part.
Maybe someone else would like to handle this group buy.

bit of a "chicken and egg" scenario: collect the money from those interested, and when you have it, they'll give you the price... How much are you supposed to collect in the first place?

Silly...

[super vw]

Looks more like they want to see how many are going to buy, then a GL member (or not) deals with collecting that money and sending it to Kerscher?

Becuase i dont see how collecting money first would even be an option... thats so dumb.

[Alex]

They give me the price once I tell them on how many people are interested. Then I would have to collect the money and send it to them. They will ship out the parts.
