i have spoken with Powertrax a number of times on this issue. I have a contact higher up than the "sales" level.

i was told that the 10 bolt "resurection" is totally possible if they see a dealer (me) put up the capitol to buy a "lot" ot them.........i'm not sure 25 was the discussed #....IIRC it was more.

i was told it could happen.................


like i posted in the "what parts do you want" thread, if you approach a manufacturer w/ a fist full of cash....they are pretty unlikely to tell you to get lost.

the 10 bolt locker is what i have discussed w/ them.............i did mention a 12 bolt "development" and was told they would entertain it if i thought there was a demand.

so basically i am saying.........I have no problem taking this on as a i have already started the ball rolling last spring.

i know this thread is on the "INVENTION of a 12 BOLT" drop in, but really my feeling is that the 10 bolt has to come 1st................or at least at the same time.


you guys let me know what i can do?
