Surprisingly, our local tester doesn't have a digital camera! Jeff, it's 2007!

I'll try to get together with him soon to get some photos. If not, the first production run should be here soon and I'll take plenty of pics.

Cool !!! I was just flipping around through the forum and noticed this post....

There is nothing like finding something new, something that was posted around 5 months ago, finding out they should be available in a week or so ... and here I'am on the verge of placing an order through TCS next week anyways... ROFL!

It looks so simple, but looks to be effective.

I'm sure some of the guys that have purchased these will post up some pics of their builds.

Also, I just wanted to let you guys know that these do not have a slot in the U shaped part to clearance the slot on the top of the axle. This would have required allot more machine work and increased the price. So we intentionally left that operation out and tried to make a part that wouldn't need it. We succeeded and once locked down these are locked onto the axle well and don't move around.

So they fit right in the side notches? Will they bee too loose if we grind off that top center notch?

You don't need to do any grinding at all. I am not 100% sure what will happen if you grind off the top center notch but I would imagine you will still be ok (not 100% though). The groove is made in the bottom piece to lock it into place.

These things look great! What an improvement over the stock garbage.

Yup, these fit in the side notches. I think if you grind off the top notch these won't pull down tight enough.

Hmmm, I might have to buy new axle housings then. The guy before me grinded down the housing to make the original stock mounts work...lol.

Good thing they are cheapo.

I was going to order these come monday, then about a week later I could let you know if they dont mount down properly when the housing is grinded.
