I thought it was going to take a few weeks but i got a call today, everything is out for anodizing already. the Tension rods should be ready the week after next as I’ll likely have to place another order with QA1 to complete each set. There will be one or two sets ready to go by the end of next week, though i already have several pre-orders from Western Canada.

All non-pre-fab components are CNC machined out of 6061 aluminum in Canada. These things are siiiiick and there is simply no debating that they hold their own against any similar product in the market place today. Well, you could debate it, but you;d be wrong, hasnt stopped people before i guess… shut up ---

Hey Bing ive got your 1st gen tension rods…as or now their set the same length as oem…i dont understand their function adjusting. I see them pushing or pulling the lower control arms either forward or back…Can you clarify how their adjusting or how i should set them up before i get my alignment or get them to fiddle with them when their doing the alignment? They dont even know what their purpose is other than from bushing to pillowmount. I know they adjust the castor but dont see how…really confused everyone has a diffrent opinion how they work and what they do ---

They push the control arms back or pull them forward, this is how the castor changes…
