I'm trying to build a RPS, I got the z legs, got the fuel tank coming in, got a line on a cushion. Went to a local shoo today to get the pivot arms, and got quoted $475 dollars for them in 316L stainless, and about 300 for 304L. Yikes!

Any cheaper source out there?

Buy them from a Whaler dealer. They cost about half that.

Maybe Ray Martin from MartinMarineDesign can make you a few. He makes rails/swim platforms with the heavy gauge stainless tube.

Whaler does not stock them but can do a set on a 30-45 day wait.

If you don't buy Tom's check with Ray Martin. He made a set for me and they as good or better than originals. See the attached photo.
