jbwelda Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 anyone know a source for some recovery hooks/loops like those used on the front and rear of tuners? machined drilled metal would be best but resin would probably work. any leads appreciated and most appreciated if accompanied by a link to someone selling them. many thanks! jb
Roncla Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 The only ones i know of are p/e. Hobby Design: http://www.hlj.com/product/hydhd02-0296/Aut Scale Production: http://www.scaleproduction.de/product_info.php?info=p983_towing-hooks.html
jbwelda Posted February 8, 2015 Author Posted February 8, 2015 oh kool, thanks so much! I searched around at HLJ because I already got an order going but didn't find these! thanks again jb
jbwelda Posted February 8, 2015 Author Posted February 8, 2015 well its backordered at HLJ and that other site wants outrageous postage...any more leads please? thanks again jb
ferrarijoe Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 6.15 + shipping on eBay buy it now price. From evolution-online
Intmd8r Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 I've tried a few different products, and the Scale Productions are by far the best. I would place the order with HLJ, even if it is on B/O. Unlike some other aftermarket vendors. HLJ is extremely reliable and professional. ALLWAYS great communication. From past experience, they may say 6-8 week lead time, but they usually get inventory in a week or less after I place my order. Just my $0.02.

X2 on HLJ and the Private Warehouse option works a treat to get everything shipped in one package.
jbwelda Posted February 9, 2015 Author Posted February 9, 2015 yep already got it in my private warehouse (great idea!) so thanks for the lead. I was just looking around for others too, for variety if nothing else. thanks for the tip on ebay, will go check on that too. jb
jbwelda Posted February 9, 2015 Author Posted February 9, 2015 that guy has about 1500 items currently on ebay and I could not find any tow hooks. maybe his auctions ended already for those. I was thinking the scale production ones do look best so I think I will keep looking for those thanks everyone and if anything comes up please post it. jb
mschlem66n Posted February 17, 2015 Posted February 17, 2015 check out hiro boy and bna model world...stuff comes from Australia in about a week with top notch packing and tracking of your goodies...highly recommend these two companies
jbwelda Posted February 17, 2015 Author Posted February 17, 2015 well thanks for those leads; I checked the hiroboy site but couldn't find any recovery hooks, maybe I did not look in the right place. sorry to be lazy but specific links would be appreciated thanks again jb
jbwelda Posted February 20, 2015 Author Posted February 20, 2015 (edited) hobby design hooks came in so they are currently in my PW awaiting the Benzio SL300 coupe. also got some super duper (from the looks of it) Sparco seats, super detailed photoetch with them (that I kind of doubt will really show in most any application but hey its good to know its there!). maybe in the benz with the clear under belly pan? nah too far a stretch. but at least you could admire the detail. jb Edited February 20, 2015 by jbwelda
