Jack,
I'm never buying anything expensive again without consulting the FOT list
first. For anyone that would like an upgraded hub and axle set-up for yout
IRS TR, contact Bill Burroughs at: TRBILBO@aol.com <TRBILBO@aol.com>. Ask
him how he and his E-ticket buddies approach this problem with their secret
hub trick
