I know that I have the right to remain silent, I just lack the ability. They say the first step towards recovery is admitting that you have a problem... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Got them today. Part of the deal is not to say much until they have gotten a full report. Needless to say, I'll be respecting that term.
I will say that first impression of the look and build is positive. I am hoping to get them fitted this weekend.
I'll post up a new thread down the road when cleared to do so. Bottom line at this early point, like what I see, and of course am certainly glad to see the Mitsu interest. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Bill, wait till ya get em on. They seem to snap right into place with a sure click whether its 2x4 or 4x4. One thing I thoroughly liked about the set i bought. Seemed like my SW's had some slop in em.

Seemed like my SW's had some slop in em. These aren't exactly the type of design that yours are. Defintely an updated mechanism, but that's all I'm saying for now.

As Brendan said, these new ones are different. We have been having a side bar on them and think that they look promising based on first impressions. This then led me to pondering the bigger picture and how to get them best tested for the group and hopefully see Rugged Ridge be able to move forward.
With that in mind, I felt that I was not the most suitable tester and messaged Patrick about dropping down the list to #2 in the replies. That sounded good to him, and now I will be forwarding them on to Toasty. As we all know, he is quite qualified to give them a real shake-down, RockRash style! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shiner.gif" alt="" /> He'll have them by the end of the week.
We'll leave it to Adam and Patrick to work out the eval feedback and update us down the road.
Ride On, Bill

Ride On, Bill I hope Patrick knows what kind of testing they are going to actually get. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Kind of makes me think of a Bud Light commercial... The too light vs too heavy. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />
