Sorry, I cant say anything as I the manufacturer simply didn't answer my questions about front bar. I have tried several times to tell them that machining ends is the simpliest way, but they promise to try invent something and no result till this time.​

 

[gerryvz]

Not sounding too good......

 

[jhodg5ck]

No worries, I'll have a run going here pretty soon.

The fatter rear bar and a replica of the AMG bar.

Will post more Shortly!

Can you give some specs what will be in the incoming batch? =)

 

[500AMM]

Sounds interesting!
Is it with machined tapering or forged to shape like the original?

 

[thebrinksman]

I'm interested as well....

I am interested. Would anyone know if these will fit my 1991 300E 3.0? If I understand correctly this is one of the things I need to make my car more firmly planted. I already have my H&R springs and my Bilstein Sport Shocks with adjustable control arms and Shock towers for a perfect alignment.

....the deafening silence...

Hello Gerry my name is Darryl and I saw an older post where you were trying to locate someone who had either an original equipment w124 E500 or E60 swaybars in hopes to borrow and make a copies (for a kit) in order to mass produce them for others who would want them. I was unable to find a post stating the final conclusion and outcome. So I was wondering whether you were actually able to manufacture copies or not as I am in need of those same parts with my first preference being an E60 kit.

For quicker contact, I can be reached at the following number and or email address (517)214-2593 or darrylthompson230@gmail.com


Thanks,
Darryl

Darryl, try contacting @jhodg5ck (Jono, at Blue Ridge MB in Atlanta area) if you are looking for sway bars. I believe he may have some replicas available.

Gerry hasn't posted on the forum in nearly a month, I think his new job is taking up his 500E spare time.

 

[jhodg5ck]

....I'm still waiting on mine....first batch all gone, COVID has messed up supply chain on our required bar stock.

hopefully won't be to much longer but in the mean time we're back ordered....

Jono

 

[gerryvz]

I never pursued it because of a lack of interest. But as said I think Jono is / will be selling them.

 

[jhodg5ck]

My guy said "Soon", as of last week.... I asked for more Specifics but he was reticent to provide me with as much.

If anyone is waiting on these send me a PM with subject SWAY BARS and I'll add you to the "call before public" list

Y'all be well, enjoy what's left of the holiday weekend

Anyone been in contact with Jono recently regarding this sway bar group buy?
Seems like the Blue Ridge MB homepage is gone, or unavailable ATM.

 

[gerryvz]

I was just on the home page for Blue Ridge MB last week and it was fine.

OK, it appears I have to update something on the PC here at work: For full functionality of this site it is necessary to enable JavaScript.

Anyway, I've tried to reach out to Jono both by PM and email, but it is radio silence.

JavaScript is a browser-related issue, nothing having to do with the accessibility or health of the site itself. Your browser very likely has JavaScript disabled for security purposes. Try it on your phone, and I bet it will work just fine.

Perhaps @JAB12 can give you some ideas on how best to reach Jono - I know he has worked with him quite a bit on getting his car worked over by Jono.

 

[500AMM]

Thanks Gerry, but it doesn't work on my iPhone either, which is private and outside business administration. I'll check my iPad tonight.

Looks like someone didn't pay the renewal fee for the URL http://www.blueridgemb.com/ because godaddy wants to sell it to me.

I too am on the (multi-year) hunt for these elusive sway bars.
I got a rear in the first group buy but would like a front as well.
.. ah well.

Any sets still available @SayHey?
