    Yep. I think people get into issues when spending too much time trying to avoid pulling the oil cooler and then dealing with the coolant hoses. It's one of those right-of-passage maintenance items like doing a timing belt, water pump, and related stuff.

    apparently the RZR Pro R shocks use the same valve.... and also have ~3 IBP and the front is ~12" travel, the rear is 16" travel!

    I might just be keeping my eyes peeled for those instead

    It's going to take me awhile, but the software is what makes this thing truly shine; it's not for the faint of heart apparently when programming.

    You can program over 128 physical buttons, by creating logical buttons which are anything from button presses, to toggles, to set switches, and more. You can even change an axis to a step and vice versa. The clear buttons also light up different colors to either match a cockpit, or even change to a different color when activating/disactivating something (or an in-game alert goes off or what have you).

    I'll have to set it up tonight when I have all the time in the world to kill :laughing:

    It's lighter than the Warthog, but that's because it adds unnecessary weight to the base to add a sense false of quality. But the Virpil's button layout makes way more sense.

    My diff drop kit only barely blocked the long steering rack bolt, I just had to take a grinder to the flange on the bolt and grind a tiny corner off it for it to clear the front diff. Took just a minute. Doesn't compromise the bolt at all.

    Unless your diff drop is bigger than 1" or whatever the standard one is

    edit - aka this

    that would be the wise thing to do. Did you save the old diff mount bolts? The ones the kit comes with will be too long without the diff drop washers on them

    I think the valve thing is different than the ford spec one tho.... maybe I will continue to wait for a set of bronco rears to show up on ebay

    @Ozark_RegCab I ordered a set of dual rubber brake hoses for ABS VSC on the 02 model on Sunday from McGeorge. They shipped today. I should get them on Thursday.
