EOI:Group buy on Harrop Sports diff cover

[Ruiner]

I'm looking at getting one soon and I know they are a hot item here so maybe we can organise a group buy.
I havent talked to Harrop yet but I just want to know if people are interested before I buy.
I dont want any maybe's, a definite answer is needed. I also dont need people saying yes then pulling out because something came up as its completely useless having 10 people interested but only 3 people willing to part with the folding stuff when it comes time to buy.
State whether its for a VR-VS or VT-VZ.

[OMR346]

How much are they? I might be buying a Truetrac centre off someone and it comes with a Harrop cover. I already have one though so i will not need it.

[abrowne70]

Depending on how much etc. im keen
VY

[Ruiner]

$525 according to Harrop's site

[OMR346]

Thats good to know. If i do buy this diff, i will have the cover for sale. I will let you know if i do.

[blair_355]

im in for group buy.

[VYSHSV8]

Just remember guys depending on what exhaust you run will determine whether you need to modify the exhaust as well :)
Something they never explain when buying 1

[Ruiner]

I see, as in not enough clearance or something?
This will need to be looked into

[AVENGE]

I'd be keen for one of these to suit a VZ. Hopefully they offer a good price.

Correct :) especially if 1 of the pipes goes around the back of the Diff and is 3"

:eeeeek: what about a 3.5" single?...

[white lie]

Always brings back a great image Drew!
Surely the single 3.5" doesn't wrap around the back of the diff?

Would be keen, depending on price.

[v8fazz]

+1 for VY if the price is good. Do you know what price we would be looking at for a group buy of 10 or more?

No idea since i havent spoken to Harrop yet, hopefully we can get into the high $400 bracket if i get enough interest, but not sure on postage. Ill shoot of a email Monday to give this thread enough time to get some interest.

[Dijm8]

count me in, been wanting 1 for awhile

[Kingston_99]

count me as well mate!
for a VY..

[Mad Dog]

:eeeeek: what about a 3.5" single?...

You should be right. I have a sureflo 3 1/2 single and no dramas when I did my diff upgrade.

Kingy, from memory the DF twin has issues as well with clearing the harrop cover.

Give me a yell when you get it and will give you a hand to put it on.

Yep correct, a few modifications and a couple of new flanges welded in solve the problem :)

[OMR346]

For reference, mine was fine with a twin 3" X-Force system.

[TWISTEDW86]

Put me down for one depending on price, Make sure you PM me before you order one for me though to confirm so I can make sure I have the money put aside that week. Cheers

[Ruiner]

Nothing yet, I'll give it till tomorrow then I'll send them a pm via here since I made the enquiry via their site.

[klink]

I notice there was an older thread from last year on the forum where a forum sponsor where they were done for 450.

http://www.ls1.com.au/forum/showthread.php?t=130704&highlight=harrop+group+buy

so might be worth looking at contacting these people if you dont get a reply

[Ruiner]

I got a reply but they want confirmed numbers before they can do a price.


"Hi Mark



Thank you for your interest in harrop products.



We are able to do a group buy price for you. Previously when we have done group buys it is the responsibility of the organise to organise the payments in one bulk transfer to us , then we would freight all the units to one address for the organiser to freight out each individual item to the participants of the group buy.



If you would like to proceed with the group buy let me know and I will organise a price for you.
