I guess when you have a simple design, most folks tend to copy it and make their own rather than support the manufacturer. Sign of the times maybe? /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

Does anyone remember what the price was for the E-Z weight brackets? I have a friend that is a machinist with his own shop. He has been thinking about doing some things like that. He already sell misc. things of E-bay.

I am sure with the cost of steel going up also cut into the profit.
I think they were in the $75-$125 depending on size.

Tom, I bought EZ Weights a couple years ago, mine are mounted on the front wheels so I have a small size, I think I paid close to $100 for mine (with shipping), so I would say your price range is in the ball park.
