Yea the abs stuff is gone and i had manual brake kit on it this year also.If i remember correct 95lbs sounds like the weight savings number but that is with the abs and power brakes gone also.I will weight the stuff when it comes off.I know this stock **** is heavy and it also sucks for rotating mass.

Steve at SJM Manufacturing. Jay from Billingsley is a good guy, but like you said, we have to pay sales tax plus shipping.

I got my fron Steve as well. Great deal especially if you have bought Bogarts from him in the past, but even if you haven't they were still a great deal.

tsk tsk... it's Bogart

Give me a call, I'll be happy to help you. We do offer exclusive specials for our Bogart customers. Though you can still use the old number which is forwarded, we have recently moved to a new 5 acre location so we have a new number.

The new number is 724 478 5580. The website needs updated quite a bit. I hope to have it corrected shortly.

SJM is a great place to get them, the weight savings is more in the 70lb area. They work better than the stock brakes, but will fade quickly in stop and go traffic !
