Strano Traction Packages--featuring UMI products

[Sam Strano]

I've put together a number of UMI products in our own packages, saving the customer some time. I've packaged these items according to how I'd put the individual parts together for different needs. The advantages for the customer? You save time, and you save a few dollars as we offer a package price for the Traction Packages (TP kits)

Sam is there any plans for a 'Strano Spring' GP?

I have all the other parts but I still would like to try a set of the white springs.....

[Sam Strano]

No, there isn't. The price is what it is, and frankly at some point might have to go up a bit with the price of shipping and materials. I've held the line through two increases on my end, but I can't do that forever.

hey sam. i am on lunch break can i call? and who do i ask for?

[Sam Strano]

You can.... It's hit and miss when I'm on the phone, but if you leave a message (provided I miss you), I'll call you back ASAP. Ask for Sam Jr.

man, i was hoping for a umi package that consisted of the 3-point bolt-on subframe connectors, tunnel brace (or DS safety loop) and the STB. any chance of that?

[Sam Strano]

Not as a pre-built package, but we have all those items. You'd want to get over to my site and check out the CSP kits (Chassis stiffening packages, found under "chassis"), add the SFC's you want to it (also found under chassis parts). And we can talk about DS loops.

yay, i ordered mine today. just sucks to that the car is taken off the road for the winter, so ill have to wait until march/april to see how she handles.

[Sam Strano]

Got the order (just thought I'd let you know) and it's being processed now. Parts will ship directly from UMI just as soon as they are both ready (popular things shouldn't be long).

hey, as long as i get them within the next 8 weeks, ill be a happy camper. speaking of which, was there a color preference drop-down menu i missed? i just tagged what color i wanted in the "notes" area.

[Sam Strano]

That won't be a problem, I promise. There is no drop-down, my site isn't designed like that.... you did great by adding the color. If you hadn't, we would have called to ask.

[SexOnWheels]

No, there isn't. The price is what it is, and frankly at some point might have to go up a bit with the price of shipping and materials. I've held the line through two increases on my end, but I can't do that forever.

Okay then I am calling right now to order then.

@ Sam ~ Ordered Yesterday! Just wondering if you have anything to look (out) for installing these. Is there a preferred position to have them in on the perch so that the springs do not block the adjustment window of Koni SA's etc?

[Sam Strano]

What specifically did you order? I don't get the orders, they go to someone else's desk I only saw the last one by chance.

[SexOnWheels]

Just ordered the Strano Springs. I actually tried to get Prothane poly Motor mounts as well, but Arlyn directed me to where to get them.

So my query is regarding installing your Strano Springs on Koni SA's I just want to make sure I can still adjust the dampers by not having the window blocked by the springs.

[Sam Strano]

We have Prothane mounts. Maybe she didn't realize it, I picked them up when she was out sick last year....

You have no choice, set the shocks on the upper perch, and turn the adjuster to face out when installing. You can't manipulate where the spring is vs. the adjuster itself.

[SexOnWheels]

^^I thought so, just making sure.

Thanks for the great customer service (as always).

Too bad the order was sent as I would have preferred to buy the motor mounts from you...

[Sam Strano]

No problem, and I appreciate the business.

[ghettosled]

yey, my SFCs and STB arrived today! the parts look top notch and look good in the box. i think they will look even better installed on the car. i now have an excuse to put off doing some work on the DD camry this weekend.

thanks sam for your support and quality products you carry!
