I contacted this place about producing stock link seals and bushings:

I'll post what they respond with

It seems that several people have been looking for these lately. Maybe a large enough group order will persuade the company to make them. Thanks Joe
-
I still can't believe that Pivot Works Discontinued them!!! I'm sure there is enough demand for them....or maybe the Aftermarket Linkage companies should make a Link for our Quads that uses Up To Date components that are readily available. ;) Keep us posted Joe on what you find out. :)
-
I had a talk with pivot works....It's their supplier that discontinued the parts.....All pivot works did was to order parts from different suppliers and put them together as a package kit.....They can still get one of the seals....not the other....

Thanks for your effort Joe.
We definitely need a new source.

Passing some info along...All Balls Racing is working on a linkage/seal kit like Pivot Works use to sell.
Joe

If they make them I'm buying at least 10 sets when they come out.

It is my understanding that Curt Leaverton owner of Hot Rods, Hot Cams, Pivot Works Wrench Rabbit, and Cylinder Works purchased All Balls Racing, Winderosa gaskets, and Vertex pistons a few years ago. He moved most of the manufacturing of connecting rods, cranks, etc. to Urbandale, Iowa about 15 years ago. Most of the original stuff that Hot Rods manufactured was manufactured by his wife's family company in Taiwan.

Close to having a complete kit available again
-
Probably an obvious question but these will be for the shock linkage or the swing arm? Or am I missing it entirely

Stock rear linkage

Well it doesn’t look like all balls will have anything soon. I just seen this comment online:
-
So pivot works is not going to re-release the kit they already produced & had available not too long ago? I know that kit was missing one of the collars & the seal shell material was too thin but at least it was better than no options at all.

From what I’m hearing it’s not going to happen anytime soon. A few “kits” were being sold last year by private
individuals ....they were not complete kits. I bought a few kits and was very disappointed when I found that components were missing.

Back in stock

These still in stock?

I believe they were all bought up within a relatively short time.
-
If it sells and there is a demand for it why did they disco it?
-
Anyone got several stashed that would part with one kit?
-
Any feedback on how new Pivot Works bushings are holding up? Wearing out quickly? I’m curious to see how they wear compared to the old ones.

Any updates on Pivot Works producing these kits again?

I recently seen some back and forth discussion between a few R enthusiasts about the availability of this kit. One party says yes available/will be available and the other party says basically never to be made again. I think it’ll be best to call All Balls. Maybe a flood of phone calls is needed again?

I ordered a Pivot Works part pwlk-h23-020 from Dennis Kirk on April 12th it came in today.
-
I ordered 4 of those kits from Dennis Kirk two weeks ago. I received an email saying that they shipped one kit and the other three are on back order and will ship soon. I really hope the other three show up!

When I ordered mine I got an email they were going to ship from another location. Couple days ago I got an email saying my order shipped. Got them this morning.
-
I ordered 3 from Dennis Kirk last week and they showed up today.
-
Are they complete kits? I have heard that they were missing a part or two?
Loren
-
The kit I received looks complete with all bushings and seals.For the link and dogbone.

Awesome!
