Billet Aluminum Jack Pads - Buh Bye Plastic.

jid2 · 11-30-2018, 09:19 PM

Anodize was scheduled to run today on the parts. Hope to have them back in my hands in a week or so.

MaximusB · 11-30-2018, 09:58 PM

I know you said you’re not taking orders and there are no time frame for this. I totally respect that, but what are the chances that I can buy a set from you? I just lost another jack pad and I’m tired having keep replacing them. This is the 3rd one in 2 years.

jid2 · 12-08-2018, 10:32 PM

Parts are back. Now I need to engrave the grooves on the contact surface.

Reminiscent of Fort Knox bullion!

derbo · 12-09-2018, 12:50 AM

Omg I love them. Just take my money.

Redd · 12-09-2018, 12:56 AM

Damn that's sexy AF. Only reason I'm not getting a set is cos they are too gorgeous to use. I get all pissed off if they got scratched up.

pbonsalb · 12-09-2018, 07:02 AM

Very fancy.

VictorH · 12-09-2018, 07:16 AM

Looks really nice. Just curious do the two slender feet on the bottom stay or do they get machined off? Seems it might be desirable to have the whole base as the contact area rather than just the two feet, unless there's a specific reason for that.

The stock jack pads have the two raised bosses/feet.

OP - absolutely beautiful. Thanks for your time and effort

(I think you're looking at it upside down. The narrower flat, smooth side touches the jack surface. The side with the raised features is pressed up against the car. Look on page one where he shows it sitting in a jack stand.)

Wow!

You're right!

Properstyle · 12-09-2018, 04:05 PM

Can’t wait for these to finish look great

admranger · 12-09-2018, 10:47 PM

Those are beautiful. Very nice!

jid2 · 12-10-2018, 03:27 PM

All right, these are done! Happy with how they tuned out, sad they will go under the car and get all scratched up. But I did cut the groves into the pads after anodizing so that you see some structured and consistent bare metal to help the scratches from use blend in and not look out of place.

These are available here: https://www.binaryeng.com/products/b...ck-pad-set-e9x

I'll work on an image that helps show the install orientation of the special nut that fits up into the chassis. You basically slide is up in there carefully and while holding it "high" rotate the bolt/nut 90 degrees then let it down to come into contact with the chassis where is locks in with the grooves on the bottom of the nut.

I feel like the Jeopardy theme just started as I'm sitting 15th on the list. While not cheap, these look fantastic. In as much as I have my car on jacks 20 times a year, this is a no brainer.

Everyone should have got a PM, please make it happen if you value your spot in line. I'll wait until end of day on Friday, tomorrow. After that the remainder of the parts will go on my website and will be available first come first served. Thanks everyone.
