He said I'd have first shot at them if he decided to part out his "set." I even tried to help him sell the whole kit together to someone that I knew was looking for it. See what I get for being a nice guy. LOL.

Well I'm glad they went to good use. Congrats on the new part.
haha im sorry

Don't be. You needed end links and you got em. Yeah his stuff is really nice. You should get the mounts too. I was tempted because I have the version 1 mounts and the version 2 mounts are so much nicer.

I'll order end links one of these days. LOL. I'm gonna order rear subframe locks too. Should go nicely with my subframe bushings and diff bushings. Tighten up that whole rear end.
