Well that's with the solid units that we did for the last however many years.

Having some strange issues with a few customers on the vaned design yet, might go a whole nother route.

The strange issues are solely on the Pontiac g8. Zero known issues with any ctsv customers. If you have any problems we will take care of it!

If you are now uncomfortable with the product, we will gladly refund the purchase pending is it unused.
Just let me know.

I'm good, I'm sure I'll be happy.. I'll likely be installing it either this weekend or next.

I just wanted to chime in on this VooDoo Chikin DIY bearing, I didn't make a jig and it was an easy peasy DIY and I'm sure with the jig it would've been easier, I've only had it in and driving with it for a week but I'm here to tell ya when moving from bench to install the difference was night and day, I did a bunch of other stuff and I'm making adjustments and haven't put many miles on it yet but at high speeds 120+ it seems to be great so far, after I abuse the car more I'll update..I highly recommend "replacing that drive shaft bearing!!!"
