someone replied to this topic before the fourm change implying their customer service was not so good. wonder if the bar's are just some cheap Chinese junk? Yes, that was me. My post magically disappeared. I called there last year and spoke to the owner and some woman took my phone/email contact. Never heard back.

Although it is probably best to call and ask him. XV is still marching along with an entirely new management team, so while Bergman used to work at XV and he and XV may get their bars from the same place, they are entirely separate entities.

Would that be Halibrand?
Had them make a custom set for my bud's 75 Coronet back in the late 80's.
They say there are no such thing as a stupid question. They say there is always the exception that proves the rule. Don't be the exception.

Peter is a good guy and has good customer service in my experience. He'll probably hop in this thread soon.

I'm about to pull the trigger and order the 1.12 set for a 440 e bod but wonder if I should go to the 1.15? I plan on just using the Bilstein RCD's. Can't comment on ride quality, but that is combo I chose for my '70 Cuda, but i bought the bars from Firm Feel as I hadn't heard of Bergman yet. I've dealt with Peter when I bought a Borgeson box from him. Very knowledgeable and helpful.

If you're running the RCD Bilsteins then go with the 1.12 bars. I have those shocks with the 1.18 bars and am going to an adjustable shock because I don't like the ride with them.

I can throw my support behind the T bars and BAC's service - I bought a set back in about September or so. I called and spoke to Peter and he quickly sent them out to me. From his place in Long Island to me near Boston I think I had them in two days. We also spoke briefly about the Borgeson Steering kits he offers.
I am impressed with the quality and powdercoating (I never asked if it actually was powdercoating, but I'd be surprised if it wasn't).
I'm installing them into my wagon next weekend and I'm looking forward to trying the car out with them installed.

My post magically disappeared. I called there last year and spoke to the owner and some woman took my phone/email contact. Never heard back. Im sorry nobody got back to you. I'd guess I never received the message unfortunately. However, my cell and email address is on my site. I've texted many on this board at off hours to try and help with questions. As far as the t bars are concerned, I purchased their inventory once they went out of business. I bought them at a good price which is why I can offer them at the price I do until they are gone. They were usa or Canada made. I never did know the exact supplier as they were in stock early in the XV days. I'm am in no way affiliated with the person who is making the "new" XV parts. I'm a phone call, text, pm away from anyone who has questions.

Stinger -- yes... go with the 1.15 tbs... or else... consider the 1.18 tbs from FF. I run 1.24 tbs with beefed Konis, and on the street (hwy) its great, as well as on HSAX and pylon AX events with sticky tires (hoosier a6).
