Where the tie-rod attaches to the relay rod, the nut is simply tightened onto the rod. This creates a very tiny mating surface, which could break. The rod should have a boss on it like the image below.
Good eye IAN...I hadn't even noticed that. Also, to add to IAN's pic an even better option is to sleave the entire section and not just use a bushing on the outside of the CL. It does make a small contact patch and could "theoretically" shear the bolt, which could be catastrophic.
As long as Climbrn is doing the testing and it's not me. [

Overall, it looks good to me and I hope it works...Still $900 bucks though....
Ian, any word on what you are supposed to be testing/reveiwing yet....
