[Shotimes] Delrin or alum?

[Carl Prochilo]

I don't think so.  If you have the same as what I have, which is basically
2 pieces in a ring configuration that sandwiches the subframe tab, that is
the standard design.  It's why Mark calls them "spacers", which I thought
was cute but accurate.

About the Gen3 hardware, I haven't driven in a car with this setup, but I
will take people at their word for this.  Sometimes I wish the right
wasn't quite so "rough" but it really isn't all that bad.  Certainly not
like riding in a Town Car.  : )
