    The only hold down kits I saw were the ones for Lincoln brakes that don't have self adjusters but I couldn't tell if you were asking a question or complaining.

    Great looking frame Redman48 I'd expect to see some photos of it as a roller pretty soon. That may be the frame they showed on FB a few days ago as one they had just finished up.

    I used them for a custom mandrel bent frame to my specs for my 1933 Chevy build and was pleased with price and communication !! Great company and would highly recommend also !

    Great guys to deal with. I've been a dealer for several years and they do their best to ship promptly and have always been very forth rite when I needed tech advise. Great looking frame, they are craftsman with that mandrel bender.
     
  8. D and his crew are top notch! More than pleased........

    There you go again being Mr. Negative.
    Do you have a valid concern or do you just like to bitch ?

    Boling is great, Derek does nice work and makes great products.
    I have a pair of their MT products Lincoln brakes on the front of my RPU, very nice stuff.

  11. I don't think anyone makes automatic adjusters for early Bendix brakes.

    IMG_1948.JPG IMG_1803.JPG Boling Bros just happen to be up the road from me and so it was a easy choice.I had seen several chassis that he built and loved the quality and their brake kit was a lot easier than hunting all the Lincoln parts.My current 31 and my next model a will be their chassis.

The Model A is on one of Boling Brothers complete rolling chassis and is running Boling Brothers Lincoln brakes. The ‘32 is running the Lincoln brakes on the rear only (no front brakes to save weight) and stops like you threw out and anchor. I can’t say enough good things about Boling Brothers products and services!

    Anyone who crates up a chassis like that obviously has high standards and takes pride in their work.
    Chassis’s look like something anyone would be proud to own.
    Nice to hear so many positive comments about them.

    Many of my customers run a chassis from them.

    All are more than pleased.

    That’s not true, just by reading this thread you have heard of them.

    And now you know they make nice stuff.

    The quality of work and their price point makes me really really consider them for the next car. They mandrel bend the rails and can do custom one off stuff for whatever project you are working on.

    I also follow what they are up to on Instagram

    My pal in Bakersfield stopped at their shop years ago to inquire about a build he was considering, he ultimately bought a finished deuce 3W from someone else but said he was impressed with them, especially the way they treated him, said they seemed like genuine car guys, said he would consider them for a future build.
