These guys have been around long enough now with their bus suspension stuff that I'm wondering if anyone here has bought from them and would like to give us a review of the parts and customer service ect.

A friend bought one of their narrowed beams, and it was very nice workmanship, with super clean welds and finish. Jeff

I bought a complete disc brake front beam and disc rear brake kit. Most parts arrived in a timely maner, workmanship is very good. Haven't had a chance to mount front beam and brakes, Had to do a bunch of mods to make the rear brakes work on swing axle, discussed this with Franklin, compensated me for my extra trouble and machine work i had to have done locally.
Hope to have all installed by next week and will do full report

These guys do kick ass work, they are super friendly and know what the hell they are doing. I visited their shop on a business trip from Miami and they gave me at least an hour of their time, they showed me what projects they were working on, gave me a tour of the place. The beams and the suspension work they do is A1 stuff.
