Shocks/fork lowers that fit the Taco minibikes

Big OOPS!
I forgot to add I am located in Denver,Colorado.
As all you guys know,there has been a shortage of these items and many people need these to finish their projects/restorations.Thru a network of minibike and go kart enthusiasts I have been fortunate(and extremely lucky) to have friends in this hobby who were willing to donate parts/advice/information and hard work to achieve the end result.Thanks to all of you.We will be producing these parts as long as there is a need.We have a casting go-to guru who has been having go kart engine and chassis parts made for many years,and I was lucky to stumble across his work.He is an extraordinary guy and dedicated to accuracy.His name is Vince Hughes,he is located in Oceanside,CA.If you want his Kart accessories website,PM me.
regards,Joel

I just recieved a pair of these shocks from Joel this weekend and a $180 is a lot less than the Arm & Leg I would have given for them !:thumbsup:
For the Taco guy's these have only been seen in catalog's ! Now you can actuallly get them ! The only problem I see is now that the part's are availible where are the bikes that use them ?

 

[george3]

the bikes are few and far between.

You shoulda been a comedian. We all know the bikes are in LaLaLand.
