Sorry OT. Just wondering, is that Dynolicious on the IPhone? I've got it on my IPod touch, good fun

Apparently more accurate than Gtech...? It's all relative anyway, means I can tell improvements with it at least!
Yup Dynolicious!! There was a recent update that makes it even more accurate! Works great!!!

Well I've got some stuff to pack them up (finally! lol) and should hopefully get them packed up this weekend. I'd do them today, maybe, but I have to wait for the duct tape to thaw, heh.

Will do!
Why would you need the lift for the Jeep? I can almost walk under it.

You'd need the lift to just change the tires on that bad boy.
By the way, Fowljesse doesn't endorse robbing old ladies.
Back on topic; I'm getting the Nd4SpdSe SRD repro stuff, and Whiteline swaybar, and will be putting them on in a couple weeks with Wytbishop's endlinks, and will scare some old ladies in parking lots.

Has anyone considered contacting Luc St. Pierre from the former SRD, about duplicating his parts? Since he designed and made them, I think it would only be the polite and appropriate thing to do...
About the front cross-member, I test fit one of the original units directly from SRD and unfortunately, there was no way it was going to fit on the RS. My former RS was a 1995 for those wondering. I don't remember exactly what the issue was, but it was not an easy fit.
It was a number of years ago, but i think the nuts were not welded in the frame as someone else had mentioned, and I even think maybe the holes did not line up properly.

I've tried contacting him many ways for many reasons over the last year, if not two, and I've yet to hear a peep from him

Well the parts have been dropped off at the post office today, and should arrive to Jesse in about 11 buisness days. I've also PM'd Jeff about what needs to be done to get these guys made and sold.
