    Yep, just talked to Paxton also. He's supposed to be shipping some out today around noon, and that it will be shipped by UPS flat rate, and that it will take 4-5 days. woot .

    Just ordered less than 5 minutes ago. Can't wait -- my UCA bushings are squeaking like crazy! (7/12/11 at 5:14PM)

    ADDITIONAL INFO:

    Paid with PayPal when I ordered and they were at my door today (7/16/11)! I couldn't be happier with the speed of shipping & delivery. I have an appointment for Tuesday morning to get them installed, which of course will be the REAL test...

    1.Remove old UCA.
    2.Prep Light Racing UCA according to the detailed instruction sheet that comes with it.
    3.Install new UCA.
    4.Get an alignment.

    :cool:

    Since we are shipping the LR UCA's out by USPS flat rate we have the schedule a pick up the following day. So for orders over the weekend or Monday will go out Tuesday. All orders up until now have been shipped out :)

    The "After" doesnt look that good. Right Front Camber needs to be closer to the .1* of the driver side, and the Toe should NOT be "-.01*" it needs to be + .05* or so......
