    I get ya, still on the fence about it. Ultimately I think my limited experience is what might make me chicken out.. that or i buy a larger welder. I do have access to 220v so I suppose that’s a possibility.

    Currently on a Dakar pack but ill eventually move up to the dealer packs. Which are you running?

    I've got a solution for the nuts behind the top of the tower, and will send to the first testers, and will be included with the kit.

    I like this solution better than welding nuts into towers, so that the threads are replaceable

    Update: we have about 20 kits bent up, couple spoken for, welding up next week

    I'm thinking of doing an introductory price cut for TW members only, $100 off, so $150 shipped

    Message for code, I'll make a list

    I haven't fully decided as of yet. I am still paying for my ATH HC rear bumper with Swingout and saving for Deaver U402 stage 3's. I know I can get bilstein 8100's right now but I really want adjusters so it will either be Fox or King. I have to figure out a way to keep them from being destroyed from the salt and brine of New England. What were you think of getting?

    I ordered the Fox that was recommended by Eric. I was going to go with Kings but both Eric and Accutune both recommend the Fox for there corrosion resistance.

    I really like the Radflo's but after looking into their corrosion resistance I decided to go Fox. I will most likely go with the Radflo's on my crawler project though.

    For other reader's, the shocks being discussed are the Fox 2.0x12.1 performance series. I did get corrosion on the fittings of my Fox 2.5 factory series, but anything would in Buffalo
