The front frame rails on Mavericks are basically like a sheet metal "C" channel, and then have a piece of flat sheet metal kind of in the shape of a L welded to the outside of them to box them in. The cover is that outside piece, it is the frame rail as you see it looking in through the front wheel opening, the piece that your front bumper brackets butt up against.
Retail price through RPS or me will be $145.95 each plus shipping. They are supposed to be available for shipment in about a week.
This is very good news!! Chuck, how will you sell them? Will you put them on ebay etc? Also, the biggest question (for me)... do you ship to Canada?
I will probably put them in my eBay store, but you can always order direct by email. I can still send a PayPal invoice for payment even when the purchase isn't through eBay, and of course I accept all major credit cards directly as well. I ship to Canada pretty regularly, and have shipped to many countries around the world, so no problem there. Just shoot me an email if you want one.
This is a part that is in demand? Why? Rust? In my 26 years of messing around with these cars I`ve Never heard of anyone replaceing one...never seen or heard of a maverick that Needed any attention in this area (except maybe a wreck). This is kinda wierd for me
On my father Stallion, this part is very rusted and rotten on some place. Cant tell you why, but the undercarriage of the car is badly rusted. Here in Quebec we have very bad winter. The car came from Michigan. Is there bad winter there? I dont know.
