I have been looking for extra Jaxon wheel clamps for my 30 model disc wheels. Some of the antique auto parts dealers are asking $8.00 ea.,found a gentleman locally that has a box full, asking price was $2.00 ea. Just wondering about the demand and if I should go back and purchase whats left.

I've had no luck finding these for my 1930 tourer.

I, for one, would pay a finders fee if you could send me a few of them... obviously I'd pay for packing & postage as well!

While the rest of the crew may be in the same predicament, it's almost always the pilot's job to arrive at the crash site first.

Yes Jack, that's them. But something that we quite often face from ebay sellers is what is also contained in the link you gave...

"In accordance with our shipping policy, we do not ship outside the USA."

Makes it hard when our location automatically excludes us from bidding. Anyway, no drama, they'll turn up somewhere. cool

You can use a shipping forwarder such as MyUS.com if you are a regular purchaser in the United States , and they will send them here down under , or consolidate them into a single parcel to save some shipping costs.

Thanks Jack, that's a great tip. Might have to give them a go. I'll need to do some research on what they can do. I'm sure they can handle most of the regular small stuff I buy on eBay and it would make life much easier. I might even see how large an item they can deal with....

I've been trying to find a way to get a set of 19" wire wheels down here and I keep coming up against brick walls.

Mmmm... off to do some web surfing now. yay
