After buying a bump steer kit off "Kirko", I needed to organise the bearings for now and thought I would use the same place Steve P did. I e-mailed them last night and just got a very polite and professional repsonse.
So Admin, how do we close the loop on this and setup a deal with ABC for everyone in the future. I get the impression they are willing to maintain the discount Steve got as long as we pull our finger out too. From a memebers perspective, I can see the advantage of just quoting a refernce for a package rather than getting a cover from one place and a bearing from the another etc.
My mind is also boggling over doing some other funky suspenion mods but I'm sure there will be a lot of run of the mill stuff like wheel and gearbox bearings we might use. So users, you pull your finger out too and have a think of what else we might need as if ABC are polite, professional and cheap, why not leverage them for other parts. We just need to decide what we need.

Hi Jim
Many Thanks for your recent email, we are always looking at tie-ins with car clubs etc. We have set up trade agreements with the Porsche owners club on wheel bearings and other ancillary items meaning that any club member that requires a part just has to quote a club reference number to take advantage of the special offers given to that club.
We would be willing to set up the same kind of deal but normally we like to look at all the bearings that we would be able to supply to make it advantageous for both parties (in laymans terms all the wheel bearings, gearbox bearings etc).
With regards to your specific enquiry we also recommended a set of side spacers and rubber dust boots meaning the complete kit consists of the following:
GAXSW14x1.5MS x 2 @ £ 28.59 £ 45.14
MRDW14 (side spacer) x 4 @ £ 1.20 £ 1.38
RDDS8 (dust cover) x 2 @ £ 2.20 £ 2.53
Delivery Methods available
1ST Class Mail (at customer sole risk) @ £ 3.99
RMSD (Royal Mail Special Delivery) @ £ 5.45
DHL (Overnight delivery) @ £ 8.00
As you can see from the prices in blue above we offered Steve Pudney substanstial discounts based on Steve "spreading the word", which obviously he has done by you contacting us.
So where do we go from here?? Who would we need to speak to to get details of the other bearings?? How would we get details of this offer and any other subsequent deals through to other members??
I look forward to your ealiest comments
Best Regards
Lee Sinclair
