    I'd just go buy a wrx to save money and time.
    This guy is a friend of my little brother. They think it's really mature to come over here and try to get us all riled up. If I drove a bone stock civic, I wouldn't even admit to it on a forum about wheelbarrows and tricycles.:nog::nog:

    So Beau(Ascinder) has not been online since like OCT so I wanted to give this thread a little bump.

    Mostly in light of Tones recent offering to make altered brackets. I talked it over with Beau and it seems like this could be done pretty cheap.

    Darlington OffRoad & Tone both sell the modified brackets & I'll still get them modified for anyone interested for $200 including the crossmember drop brackets.

    My issue is cost Tom. I really want this done but cannot afford Tones price and I'm sure Darlingtons either. Not that the price is horrible I just have a hard time spending that kind of mula when I know, working with Beau, I can get it done myself cheaper. Beau posted that the 97'-2002 troopers(4 door) with TOD work. Jolly Roger got some diff drop brackets from Paddoku that look nice but I cannot read the website and I didnt ask how much paid but its another option.

    I am not trying to play down Tone, you or darlington. I am just listing thoughts for those who cannot afford it.

    Its expensive when i only 20 dollars in my bank account.

    It really isnt that bad.

    All I'm sayin is that for some effort on my part and whatever this guy at work might charge I can possibly save.

    If not, I will be happy to spend the mula when I get it.

    I didnt know that Tom was doin his deal when I posted on this. I guess thats what I get for not reading every post anymore. Also, last I had read was that Darlington did not sell them anymore.

    Really, I am not trying to make a stink about it. Just posted some thoughts.
