Downey has closed up shop.
http://forum.ih8mud.com/chit-chat-se...-off-road.html
Downey Off Road Mfg. ceased operation on July 31, 2009.
There are ongoing negotiations with six different well known companies who are interested in continuing major portions of the Downey product line. You will no doubt find Downey products at one or more of those companies in the near future. We thank your for being a part of our 39 year history.
Jim Sickles, President
Downey Off Road Mfg."We had to close the doors for three reasons:
(a) Internet competition from smaller dot.com companies who have very little, if any overhead.
(b) Internet forums that reveal all the other sources of supply (consumers now better connected).
(c) Recession!!!!"
