I think maybe only 1 or 2 people might have gotten them.

They are working on instructions to send with the package before they start shipping them out.

You have to have enough $$$$$$$$$$$$$ to build an engine powerful enough to warrent the strut! Then $$$$$$$$ to buy the damn thing! That leaves me out!!!!!!!

I will have 3 C5 rear ends wrapped in this kit as fast as I can receive the kits, to include my own personal 01 Coupe. I have blown apart my stock diff and 3rd tranny output shaft already. I can tell you right now you will absolutely need this item if you want to get more life out of your diff and trans. The customers that have me installing new ratio diff's and built trannys I highly recommend to them to get this kit.

bill, relatively speaking for the C5 world, it's a bargain at $369. If it saves the rear even one time, it's paid for itself many times over.

and I don't think it takes that much power to twist the rear up if you're launching at the strip on et streets or DR's. Stock power cars have fallen victim.
