Man, you guys are fast on the replies! BTW, Bender, since you are here, have you ever used Delrin on the SW2 with the TLT? I know you did for the Clod, how did that ever work out? |

 The 1/4 was to thin! I should have asked instead of just assuming! | |

I'm using 1/4" for all my links on my P4 TLT and so far haven't noticed any problems. I'm running a 60/40 setup, so my rear links are longer. I love using Delrin for them...they are quite slick and slide very well on the rocks.

I'm using the 1/4 inch delrin also and It's been plenty strong for me.

I use 1/4" delrin for my links w/o out any issue, they do slide nicely over the rocks. haven't tried to heat and bend it yet although the thought crossed my mind to try it. |
