I agree with you Bill on price If I needed a set it would be hard to find and hard to afford them.
But reproducing something with no specs. and putting them on our trucks is not correct. I have experience with overseas castings and forgings and it is not good. I have personal experience in visiting some of these factories. I do not know where these came from but they do look suspicious only because of the quantity and packaging. I guess I would ask for metallurgical test on the ones posted. Past that I only try to use from the era it dilutes the originality if we do not. Just my opinion. Russ
