    How are you liking your AP ucas? I'm thinking about buying some in the next few days. Any issues? How has the uniball held up, is it rusting at all? Trying to determine if they use the chrome plated steel or stainless steel. Anything you can tell me is appreciated. :cool:

    After digging up some old boxes I'm pretty confident it is "eat911a445". I went through summit racing, I'd recommend them!

    I've loved them! This will be the first winter with the so we will see how the snow treats them. It's rarely rains here. My friend has the light racings on his fjc and wasn't a fan. I've love mine, definitely freed up a lot up WT. However it appears that's the only thing limiting my down travel. I would recommend them!
