Stress coat is a brittle coating that cracks when it it's stressed... so you can visually see whats happening when the shaft twists... kinda fun to check stuff out like that.

Haven't bought any recently. Here's a link to the info on how it works. And here's the company that sells it... If their still in business LOL.
Thanks a bunch man!
I appreciate the input!
I don't think that I will mind or care if it is too stiff, but I need some help.
I already scarred the insides of the wheel-tubs moving it in the yard...And I have over a half inch of clearance per side.
I want it to corner good.
