Overview:

MSD now offers Ford distributors with steel gears for use with hydraulic roller cams. In the world of modern engine design, it's hard to beat a hydraulic roller camshaft for all-around performance. It's crucial to match the distributor gear with the cam material to prevent premature failure of the cam or distributor gear which can lead to engine damage. Ford distributors present a challenge when changing the distributor gear due to their pressed fit, the need to cross drill the distributor shaft and set the gear to a specific height. We've taken the trouble out of the mix with our line of popular Ford distributor applications that come with a steel gear installed ready for hydraulic roller cams. Whether you're working with a crate engine or building your own combination, MSD has the performance distributor ready.

    Great Service and company
    Size: 100LBS
    This umbrella stand we purchased does the job our previous heavy metal stands could not do. It stands up to high winds where we were forever standing our umbrella back up with our old stands. When I filled the stand base up with water and sand I accidently locked one of the wheels and pushed it from my truck to our pool patio and ground one of the wheels down to its rim. I messaged Fruiteam asking if I could purchase a new wheel and they sent me a set of 4 no charge. Great product and great customer service!

    Perfect! Easy, convenient, definitely recommend

    I am so glad I found this base that I can just fill with water. After screwing on the wheels, I used my garden hose to fill it with water and put my 1.5 inch diameter umbrella in and tightened it. Easy peasy. I love that it rolls and I can move it wherever I want, and also lock two of the wheels if needed. Definitely would recommend this one!

    Happy with my purchase. Sturdy well built, love that it has wheels makes it easy to move around and wheels lock in place. I choose to fill it with sand and water as it gets really windy where we live this will prevent my umbrella flying to the neighbors house again 😅

    Must Read before Purchasing!!!! Height is lost if you use this base!!!!
    Size: 100LBS
    I was so very excited about this for our umbrella - and then I put it together. I called my adult son to come and take a look - I had to be doing something wrong. To our dismay, I was not. The lowest pole in the umbrella system has 4 welded pieces with holes meant to connect to the legs, thus stabilizing the structure. The lowest pole measures (guestimate) 3 feet. When you choose this system, you do not use the original cross-bars, nor the original lowest pole with the 4 welded pieces. Rather, you use a newly provided lowest piece roughly measuring a foot. In doing so, the structure loses a total of almost 2 feet. For average-height individuals, this would not be a problem. For individuals 6' or greater, this is quite a problem. My son is 6'6. My husband is 6'2. I really wanted the portability of the product. However, we will be returning it for the kind that rest on the cross-bars. I wish someone had mentioned this in the reviews I read and saved me the trouble.

    Makes moving your umbrella around a breeze.
    Size: 100LBS
    This is best idea in umbrella stands. Decent price. I love that the water intake/release is on the side. Many are on top of the stand. Doesn't leak. Easy to move around and easy to put together with the included tools. I have 2. One for a very heavy 10 x 6' umbrella, and the other for a very light 1/2 round umbrella. Works equally well for both. One tricky part the instructions don't include is that is parts F and J are 'in place' in the base and you need to remove them to re attach them to the cylinder, or what they refer to as the "stand pole". So, if you are looking for parts (and I did this twice), just remember you will find them on the underside of large plastic umbrella base. Both are black, and so not immediately apparent. Love that there are two locking wheels and they include an extra screw. IKEA could learn a few things here.
