    Sorry everyone, I wasn't received thread updates. Jim Pm'd me though and that came through. weird. Anyways. thread updates seem to be working now that I have logged in.

    I sent Jim the prototype back and am working on getting him a stock subframe. I will be borrowing a spare from Bo, I just need to get down to portland to strip all his parts off it and mail it out. POSSIBLY, this weekend but hopefully not much longer than that. Its a bit of a journey but it should be worth it .

    Thanks for keeping us updated.

        I have noticed this happens to me were randomly my e-mail will dump some of the Club Protege e-mails into my trash folder and some into my inbox. I'd bet you are getting the same issue.

        Keep up the good work JPmotorsports, hopefully I can save up some extra cash to pick one at some point.

          Hey Jim, was just wondering if you ever had a chance to get some powder on my unit? I was hoping I could get it from you soon as I will be home and can actually do some work on the car here shortly! I will throw an email your way as well. Hope all is well in the shop!

            I have been meaning to bump this thread. I was visiting bo last weekend. He has a spare awd subframe that he is gonna ship out to Jim.

            So jim I imagine bo will get you a receipt or something once he has shipped it. I haven't asked him. But that should be your way shortly.

              Hey there-I dropped it and it needed to be blasted so I'll have a batch going to get blasted PDQ and we'll slip it in---then it shouldn't take very long to powdercoat---we're in a 2 week cycle currently---hopefully by the end of the year we'll be down to a one week cycle/cranking out enough products for the batch.

              Perfect-I was going to check in---I received that prototype unit back and it's usable---just have to redo the legs and add the extended Pivot tabs---I'll take care of everyone on the shipping no worries-thanks!

                  This is the first time I've seen this, damn email updates not coming through and me being preoccupied with work. This is awesome news and I can't wait to get this bad boy back in my hands and underneath the car!

                        Any chance you were able to snap some pics of that finished subframe today, Jim? Looking forward to getting it bolted up under my car and hopefully have concrete progress under my belt this year.

                          It was all shrinkwrapped nice and neat---I kept wrapping and then bubble wrapped over the top of it...it's in the car now/going out tonight---I have like six others here that just need to have the legs welded on though I can take pics of! Just need that 4WD rear subframe for a few hours to finish the jig.

                                Nothing-we did offer a 2wd unit a few years back---but I think I get about 1 order a year for them...
