    This weekend is booked up, as you know, but I'll let you know once the flip-kit gets here. Prolly gonna go ahead and get ass raped for the flexpod mount too so I can get my Aeroforce installed.

    And you know, maybe should get in on some brake lines while we're at it. Stock is fine right now but I wonder about when the shackle flips go on...

    Because it's different. /PD3

    Seriously though, it's got some capabilities SG doesn't. Ultragauge seems to have even more at a lower price. All I can say in my defense is I wasn't aware of the UG when I ordered the Interceptor.

    Also, Wheeler's should be shipping out some stainless extended brake lines to me tomorrow...or, you know, sometime in the next 4 months...

    Hehehe, nah, not yet Dan. I'm waiting on a u-bolt flip kit from all-pro (you guys should offer one!) and, of course, the brake lines.

    Once all the stuff's in, Lrgrnr and I are gonna get together and get some mod time done.


    Edit: Also, what's up with the different colored foam on the rears? Different resistance rate?

    It's gonna be tight, but it looks like it'll just barely mount right up after drilling out with a uni-bit and have about a quarter inch of bracket on either side of the bolts.

    Howdy Folks. Just wanted to shed some light on the different color for the Superbumps. We do have a couple slightly different foam densities that we use for the superbumps- we wanted to try color coding them to help differentiate them. We went for black and yellow. We got a small run of yellow and shipped them out. They ended up costing us a little more, slowing down production and were not worth the hassle so we are going to go back to all black for now and differentiate them with permanent marks on the base insert.

    Thanks for clarifying. One more question:

    In terms of bottoming response, are these new ones stiffer, the same, or softer than the old design?

    I want one of those flexpod mounts for it for less than $140.

    Feel like doing a custom one-off overbuilt gauge mount? :D
