[Shotimes] CONTROL ARMS (please read) write-up

[Midwest SHO Specialists SHOtimes]

As far as I know, Josh doesn't have them up on the site because of liability
issues.  It's a tough call since everyone these days wants to sue everyone
for everything and the first time you get some tool spinning the ass end of
his SHO into a curb he's going to threaten you.  I have them, but for what I
make on them (virtually nothing) i'm considering just dropping them.  As it
is there is a 2 page disclaimer that you must read and you also must agree
that they aren't being installed on a vehicle without ABS.

Whoa, I jumped way OT.
