I've used STD in the past w/o issue but after reading some of the grief members have gone through I'm definitely avoiding them. I jotted down the contact info a few days ago for Hunters (Lynn) as posted in one of these threads (provided by you so thanks ). Their web-site didn't list any of these items & I would like to see what I'm spending it on.

My main concern is the c-notches appear to be flat w/angles legs vs. a round notch. Based on info from Lakeroadster, the flat/angled notch is weak in the corners vs. the round notch. On a dually that is used for more than posing.... this is a concern. I'm guessing the dually notch is shaped differently because of the OD of the axle tube.

Pics would be great. Material thickness as well if possible Thumbmaster .

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
