Anybody been intouch with Franklins? Are Tina and Franklin okay? I know its their busy season. I've tried emails and phone messages with no replies.
I put a deposit down on a beam months ago.
Just making sure they are still up and running.
Hopefully i get a reply soon.

Franklin's hooked me up with a nice used Type 34 bumper for a great price. They packed it well and sent it FAST.  _________________ Немає виправдання для війни! Я з Україною.

Ok, Thank you guys for helping me get a hold of Franklin.
I was able to talk with him at length today and they hopefully will be shipping out my beam tomorrow. They have had some personnel issues and hope to be back up and running at full steam.
I will post pics when it arrives!
Thank you TheSamba.com for helping me 'the little guy' out. |

I have been a lurker around this forum for just over a year now. I saw that many people here had great experiences with these guys, so I gave them a go. Ordered a full front beam for my 71' bay complete with Wilwood calipers and rear Wilwood calipers. Total order came to $4300.00.
I placed the order, put half down back in November of LAST year. Over 6 months later and I have not heard anything from them.
Anybody had any issue with these guys lately? |

Like Corwin, I too have had tons of business with Franklins. He just did a narrowed beam, porsche/wilwood vented and cross drilled disks for my vert. Also added the sway a way adjustable spring plates, and a number of other things. Frank always comes through with flying colors.
Franklins beams are so "NICE", that even one of his competitiors had Frank build one for his personal vehicle. |

In the last year I've done thousands and thousands of dollars of business with Franklin's shop and never once had a bad experience. Franklin is a 100% stand up guy and he really knows his stuff. He's got a great shop and is always going the extra mile to help people out.
I've bought two narrowed/adjustable beams complete with drop spindles, he's completely rewired one of my cars, custom fit 17" wheels on my Ghia, etc. the list goes on.
Can't recommend them enough. A+ shop. |
