We're putting an RTT on our '71 Wagoneer. The Confer design just really looks correct on these trucks, and any others of the same era, and they work extremely well. I have some of these clamps, but not enough to completely support it. When I went looking for more of them I found that they're really expensive when you can find any at all. I decided to see about making what I needed instead. The original parts are steel with a cadmium plating. As I live in CA getting the plating done would be next to impossible, so I decided to make these parts in 304 Stainless Steel instead.
So far there are 3 people interested in perhaps as many as four sets of parts each. As the number of parts goes up, the cost comes down so I thought that I would see if there is more interest from folks who didn't see them in my build thread. To give some idea of where the cost is now, were I to only make 16 sets of parts the cost for 4 sets would be about $550. As the number of sets increases, the cost will go down. I just don't yet know by how much and won't know until I have some idea of just how many of each part I'll be making.
