Tha'ts great info! Thank you.

Now just have to save $ for the glide/9" swap..I know RPM gives great pricing and I wouldnt use anyone else, but it's certainly not inexpensive! haha

No doubt man. It is an awesome setup, just a hard pill to swallow when you see the price tag.

I was just watching the record run video last night and I was thinking, “when will we see this thing put in more work”.
