I've been building some replacement fender mounts as the stock ones for the US kit are quite bad, and they fail regularily. Even when you patch them up so they don't break they still bounce around far too much. Here is what I came up with.

Anyone interested in these mounts should join the FB group as there is a group buy for the bent pipe. It ends May 15th. $125USD + shipping.

Here you go:
So here is the info for the fender mount group buy. This includes 8 pre bent pieces of SCH 40 3/8" pipe to the dimensions as shown in the pictures I have posted (and nothing else). All pieces will be over sized so you can cut them down to fit. (~6" longer than you need on both ends)
The group by will run until May 15th. After that you'll have to pay full price of $160 USD + shipping per set.
Cost $125USD + Shipping
UPDATE!!
Jesse will throw in all the extra steel I used to make the mounts for an additional $25USD. You will still need to cut and weld the pieces but you shouldn't need any other metal if you build the mounts shown in my video's.
Contact: Jesse Legault at Titan Fabrication
phone number: 403 909 7866
Email: titan.fab@icloud.com
Contact him to arrange payment deposit.
Disclaimers:
1. These will not clear stock suspension in the front. If you plan to use the stock suspension you might make contact under full lock. I do not have stock suspension anymore to check.
2. I have used the nub on the hub in both the front and rear to mount these. They are bent assuming that is where they will mount. They will likely fit other places but nothing has been checked.
3. Both the frond and rear use 1 brake caliper mounted mount (like the exomotive ones). They have only been tested on stock 94 brakes. I do not know if they will clear anything else.
4. No steel for the mounts is included. I used 1" x 0.100" square tubing for the rears, and 1 of the front mounts, and the other front mount I used 3/4" square tubing with a piece of 1/8" plate as a brace.
5. I have chosen angles that differ from the exomotive mounts. If you have already mounted your fiberglass fenders the front mounts will not line up. The rears will work at pretty much any angle.
6. Pipes come in as bent condition. No surface prep or deburring will be done (to keep cost down).
7. There is no formal build support, or warranty on these as you have to fabricate them yourself. If you have some odd configuration they may not work. Ask questions before you buy if you have any concerns.
8. If you live close to someone else ordering them consider bundling your order to save on shipping.
9. In case there is any confusion THESE ARE NOT COMPLETED MOUNTS. YOU WILL HAVE TO CUT AND WELD TO USE THESE.
