Back to the Valiant again.... This poor little car keeps getting put on the back burner, and I finally have given it a bit of love again. Not sure many people follow this but a lot has happened in the years I have been gone from the site. I have essentially built 3 other cars while the Valiant...

Well.... they fit! BARELY!!! But they fit! I was able to get over to my buddy’s place this eve with the 1” wheel adapters. Just as I had planned it came up with about 3/16” from the spring pack and roughly a 1/4” from the rolled under lip. My springs are worn out and sag a bit, so in these...

@72bluNblu thanks for the heads up on the caps. I had noticed them in one of you other posts. They definitely fit the wheels nicely looks wise too. As for my fitment in the front, if I have to Ill play around a bit with spacers and see if I can correct that bit of deficit you are talking about...

This is just photo edited, but it gives me and idea. Also I know I wont get the car that low without major surgery in the wheel tubs. LOL

@MopaR&D car looks great! Did you ever find center caps? I ask because I am on the same adventure you were with these same wheels. I think I found a solution for the caps as I 3D printed one. :) Just curious what you found? Couple more questions as well. 1. Did you have them open the center...

Not here often anymore.

This was still quite a while ago, but as you noticed I haven't been on in a long time. Life happened, but as far as the adapters go I had too many people that stole the idea and started making them as well. There were several guys making them for a while there. I am guessing there is likely...

Hey guys.... Been busy as hell lately, and still not getting notifications of messages. I may need to check my email settings I suppose. Anyhow, I have replied to all the PMs. Thanks... Feel free to visit my site as well. The ORIGINAL Flip Top Cap Adapter - FlipTopCapAdapter.com

Hey all, Sorry for the lack of replies. I haven't gotten emails saying I have messages since the new site is up. Ill be digging around to see whats up with that.

Shameless "bump" since this thread doesn't get seen so often since moved.... :) Happy Monday FABO!!!!

There are many Frequently Asked Questions on my website. Feel free to check it out so you dont need to read through so much for your answers. www.fliptopcapadapter.com

Thank you! Just seeing this.

Thanks all! Glad everyone has gotten them! My apologies if you have contacted me in the last week. I was on spring break with my family and kind of "unplugged" from the internet. It was nice! Hahaahaha

Been selling these like crazy lately! Direct from my site as well as here. Plenty in stock. :) A huge thank you to all of you for your support and purchases. I never would have guessed Id have sold this many of these, or any for that matter! :) FABO rocks!!!

Awesome! Thanks Mark and Holy Roller!

Holy Roller: No, this will not provide any added function or improvement on a Barracuda already equipped with the flip top cap.

I am interested to know if anyone has done this or put much thought into it. I plan to set my car as low as possible, so my next measurements to take will be from the ground to the "flat plane" that the frame rails will sit on. That will be key of course, but if the car sits too low, you could...

OK guys and gals.... Please put down the pitchforks and torches! :protest: Before I get started I must mention, I have now done several "updated" front suspension swaps and lots of fabrication like this, so this thought is not without some experience backing it. :) SO, I am right in the...

Hey guys! Very sorry for the lack of reply I have been sick for about a week and havent touched email or a computer for that matter! I have just replied to all PM's, and rest assured ALL adapters have been sent out and you should be seeing it soon if you haven't received it yet! Its the one...

I get what you are trying to convey I think Pawned. However, that wouldn't work so well as that is the point of the adapter. *To space it off the quarter panel ever so little so the cap doesn't touch the sheet metal. If you look at the cap base closely, it has a bit of curve to it, that will...

Rich Rae and Jesse Bowen..... I need your addresses please. ;) Please PM me right away so I can send out your adapters asap. ;)

Sending PMs now!!! :) Thanks all!!!!

Most packages are sent via the automated mail kiosks at the USPS postal office yes. The only exception is for Canadian orders. I typically use PakMail, and they offer either UPS or FedEx typically. So most orders are received within a week generally speaking. :)

Awesome guys! Thanks for your business. Ill have all paid for adapters in the mail today. By the way, please note the following. Because there are now 40 pages to this thread and cost as well as some basic instruction has been buried I will make a few notes worth mentioning. This all...

Adapters are IN................................. Ill be PMing those who have PMed me momentarily! Thanks all!

Good Morning!!!! Great news, they will be in my hands this Friday! Sorry for the delay. Ill be sure to go through the thread as well as PM's and contact you with payment information. Thanks again all!

Mornin' guys! Happy damn New Year! So I have been inquiring with my buddy about the adapters. He works at the ship yard and makes them for a reasonable price. (I really dont make a fortune on these! LOL) These are CNC made and their machine was down as of last week and he had not made them yet...

Wow guys! Good to see a little action here. I currently have only one in stock as I have been waiting on the machinist for a couple weeks. He does it on the side and now that the holidays are here, I dont expect to see them until after the holidays. :/ If you are all willing to hold off until...
