Over all a cool place with nice people!
George this is so cool, I've always wanted to just buy one of their complete 4.10 rear ends, kind of like a plug and play. I know its expensive but at least you don't have to open up the pumpkin even though Bill and Leo have not had any issues (whine) with their gear replacement, you never know

They have locations on both coasts. my car already has UDP,delete plates, ect. all that I want now is a D/S, and some lower control arms but that will have to wait for now.

Welcome to the POTR Gary, I'm from fly past country...

My wife is from Houston so I'm sorta an honorary Texan... Plus we plan to retire in the Hill Country, maybe near Austin... But that is a few years away.

Thank you. I think most people don't realize how beautiful the Austin area is. From the shores of the lakes to 6th street and the eclectic culture of a University town. I can't think of anywhere else I'd rather retire to.

And the entertainment that you can find on 6th street (I think... but it has been awhile) is better than anywheres else in this country.
A few years ago my wife and I took a ride out to Meridian, Texas, for her great aunts funeral and I love it out that ways as well. Just simply beautiful country!
