I am sure that marlin is working on them as fast as they can.  These knuckles are marlins designs and no one should have them out before him.  If they do they stole the design.  Keep that in mind when buying from another vendor (TG) Be patient guys, you can udgrade them at anytime.

Be patient.  No one from Marlin can talk about it, according to the thread on pirate, it's being hashed out by the lawyers.  It's just a matter of time, run the stock ones with the ARP studs in the meantime.

due to pending litigation  this really cant be discussed at this time,  however  the 6 hole arms CAN be run on the stock knuckles  until the 6 stud's can be released,  saving you that money  when the knuckles DO  come out.

Hendo,  did you read the thread above?  They probably, and this is speculation, cannot say anything because of litigation.  Marlin Crawler has some of the best customer service I have seen.  When they do make a mistake, they correct it promptly.  Why are you so interested in the six knuckle studs, have you sheard all 4 off before.  Highly unlikely.

megolfer

Did you not read the post about how they can not talk about it.  Look three posts up and it will explain it.  When a business in in lidigation they cant talk about it.  Also due to the fact than many designs have been stolen from marlin in the past, I dont blame them for keeping quiet about this and any other new products that they are coming out with.

How about a link to the pirate thread???

I'd kill for these things. I'm so sick of carrying extra knuckles with. With ARP studs I break the knuckles :thumbdown:Or crush the upper trunion bearings :o

Once again, they can not talk about it because it is a legal issue. There is no time frame for these and when they do come I am sure that they will appear on the web page without any notice.  If you want to go dana 60 then do, but you will spend way more money.  I will wait.

RockSlayer

After MCR5, I think you have sold a bunch with all the carnage I saw.

Quick , get a better Lawyer!!

mudaddict

i sheered all 4 off the pass side at mcr5 these are on the top of my list when they coem out i will wait patiently i asked marlin about them when he was helping me with the borken stud problem i had on the way out of the con on sunday and he is working on trying to get them out just not sure when. i know these will be a big hit after like rockslayer said after mrc5 im sure alot of people are looking into these and waiting for them.

i have been waiting for them for awhile too.  after my last 2 trips breaking both side studs i can not wait any longer.  it is Dana 60 time for me.

S-10 Stewy

Hyena, you have broke both sides multiple times????  Were those the ARP studs???  Do you have hydro assist?  I currently have a "home made high steer" made of cutting, flipping and trading sides with the factory arms.  In almost five years I have never broke off any studs but have been very consistent with "pulling" out the threads on the p-side, front, outer stud.

I too want the 6 stud knuckles, even more so now then when we first all heard about them. Your Dana 60 plan will surely fix the problem but is a fairly expensive one as well.

I am just going to keep waiting ....... :yawn:
