I'd be scared of the cable style ones wearing out over time. Fraying or breaking would be extremely scary. I've never really trusted that woven cable.

I also don't have any personal experience with those style travel limiters so they could last extremely long. IDK, I'm just responding on the material in general.

When you buy them from Madman he tells you how to set them up. (HINT) Buy from Madman, he's been working on 4th gens for like 12 years.

haha, psj, your killing me.
i think i might just make my own. i want to do somthing so i dont have to weld to the wheel well because my well is white, and i dont want the slag.
i think im figured out a way to do it without welding. if it doesnt work i will call mad man. id rather not weld them it tho.
