Today's update

Good morning. Today I'm finishing up that batch of main crossmemember sections. Already have parts and pieces for the next batch. I may increase the number being made in the batch pretty soon. 5 sets just isn't that many. I'm pleased with the new band saw. The auto down feature has allowed me to cut DOM bushing sleeves all day yesterday and all while I did other things. I kept forgetting it was cutting. It cut 60 bushing sleeves, 4 main crossmember sections and 7 motor mount stands until I ran out of that material. I'll finish up that whoole stick of 2.5" od DOM this morning. Those are the outer bushing sleeves for the lower control arms. I'll have plenty for the next several batches of lower control arms. I would have had to stand at the chop saw and cut those one at a time. I wish I had gotten this band saw sooner.

Next up for it will likely be 2" od DOM tube for the upper arms and then after that cutting the 1.25" od DOM used for the control arms. Lots to cut and I'm glad I have an extra blade. Probably should have at least two extra blades.

Some of you guys with multi piece orders may get somethig shipped that's part of the order just out of the blue. That's just part of the building in batches thing. As I continue to build in batches I'' eventually have more product on the shelf ready to ship.

My apologies for being a little behind here. I don't like letting the lead time get over a week. That's about what I like it at, a week or less. I just got slammed with orders I guess from guys getting tax refunds. That and vacation for a week. Anyway back at it going hard in the CPO shop.

You guys that need to get in touch just email me at vsawmike@gmail.com or text or call me at 214-498-4840, Thanks

Welcome to Chassis Parts Online. We manufacture and sell tubular control arms and related suspension parts for all kinds of applications. Our parts are made by hand in our small Texas based fab shop. We specialize in custom suspension parts for the 03-11 Crown Vic subframe commonly used in Ford trucks from the early 50s thru the mid 90s to replace the very tough I beam suspension to one with much better ride and drive. We make tube control arms for those in stock length and 1" shorter for stock struts, coilovers or airbags. We also make a narrow bolt in crossmember for the 65-79 F-100 chassis. We are working on a version for the 53-56, the 57-60 and the 61-64 F-100 trucks. Those frames are very similar up front just like the 65-66 are the same as the 67-72 and the 73-79. Don't worry if you have an 80-96 F series as we are working on a bolt in version for those trucks too.

I have been making custom suspensions parts on and off for 30 plus years. I started out making control arms for minitrucks when I couldn't find any made specific for bags. Now they are commonplace. In 2022 I made some for a Crown Vic subframe and people started asking when I would make more. Now I do it full time from my home based shop in Texas.

I finally decided to set up a shop and do this full time the right way. So Chassis Parts Online was born. I like the way Shopify runs their websites and payment processing. Makes it safe for the customer and that's a top priority. So here we are making parts and adding parts as regularly as we can. If you don't see what you need here just ask.

**** TO ORDER AN UPPER AND LOWER CONTROL ARM SET YOU WILL NEED TO ADD UPPERS AND LOWERS TO CART SEPARATELY AS THEY SHIP IN SEPARATE BOXES. ****
