That's your problem Brent, you take advice from people who have no idea what they are talking about. Look at this thread on NOR , full of ignorant remarks from the locals.

It's really sad watching that crowd posting their comments about how much it will cost, how much it sucks, and how they can do better.

The same thing happened when the CALMINI gears came out. Those of us with a brain have them, those without are still waiting for some magical gears from some other company to materialize[QUOTE]

Not a GD one of us were commenting on "how we could do better", or "how much it sucks". Learn to read. The only negative comments were about suspected price. Bagging on another message board, and their "ignorant remarks", is just pathetic.

I've never met someone so far up a company's ass before. How does Calmini's shit taste? I've never ONCE questioned the design, strength, or workmanship of Calmini's products. They're extremely well built, almost to the point of being overdesigned. But their pricing scheme sucks. And not just for Nissan's. That goes for the Sammi products as well. They make a damn good product, and they make sure their pricing scheme reflects that.

As to the mounting tabs that some people seem to be concerned about; don't be. On paper, they should hold up. But that's why they're testing it, before releasing it. Duh! (BTW, Steve, calculating bending moments isn't all that freaking hard; quantifying how much stress is actually gonna' be there when offroading is the hard part. Good thing Brent didn't know the moment is just force times distance...) And before XOC comments on any more remarks of mine, calling them ignorant, or whatever, my degree says engineering on it. What's yours?
