Cradles
 
Any vendors out there sell moly lighter weight cradles? Looking into Weight reduction items, figured cradle weight savings would be substantial.

I don't think there are any vendors making aftermarket cradles.....yet. But BMR was just on the forums the other day asking how many would be interested, I think they are looking into it.

P.S. How's the wheels?

Cool, I hope they come out with something.

Wheels were shipped ! (Thanks again!) I havent had time to see them yet. I will real soon :)

There is one company and its expensive as crap, $1850, and to me not worth it until someone comes up with a more cost friendly solution.

Not sure I'd want to spend $1,850 :confused0068:

That looks like a nice piece. I'm sure you've noticed that everything is expensive for these cars. Is $1850 really that bad of a price??? Sure, not worth it for most people for a 30lbs savings.

I would pay $1,850 for 60LB, no problem :thumbup:

We are planning to build both tubular front and rear cradles for the Camaro at an affordable, reasonable price. It will be a while before they are ready because it is going to take quite a bit of engineering and time to produce and test good quality parts that we are willing to put the BMR Suspension name on.

Thank You!

Looking forward to any future progress on this.

We are working on coming out with some unique and innovative products for the new Camaros so the rest of the year should be pretty interesting. :D
