[QUOTE="cj428mach, post: 15041418, member: 142081"] I assume the local machinists of the Cobra community are aware of our situation and since no one has tried taking this on that its not going to happen. If someone wants to try to get Cobra Engineering to take this on that would be great. This shop is top of the line and there is expense involved with dealing with the best but honestly its the only machine shop in my town that can even take on something like this. Wichita probably has quite a few shops but I don't have time to drive around to all of them to ask about it. Also if I was to have extras made for others I want a place I know will produce a top notch product. I believe the pulleys actually cost very little for them to make, its just all that design cost has to be broken up over the total production run. That means each pulley added to the order takes a chunk out of it. The guy has emphasized that once that design cost is ate up they'll become much more affordable. MG0h3- Are you sure you're going the correct direction? If you're using the 14mm hex then you need to be going counter clockwise. Did you use heat? I tried taking one apart with a 1" impact with no heat and it didn't budge. I was trying not to use heat on the one i was using as it discolors the finish. Less than a minute with the torch heating the tri-bar and my 1/2" impact zipped it apart. cozmo2806 says he's disassembled 3 successfully for his caged lower project. [/QUOTE]
