where would i get the hd steel uni's from,also the bumper.

thanks

For the rear front and front rear, you can use washers. Take Off offers them I know from o.5mm to 3mm.

hey my hara ed. has 3 places for the e-clips on the shock shaft so you can either have the piston in a lower our higher position. whats the difference. the stock manual doesnt have any information.

i also have a bunch of pro4 pistons. in a andy moore setup i have he says he has 3 holes is that the small 3 hole piston that is in the pro4 complete set? i would think the #1 with the two big holes would be better. (trying to go off a xray setup for our local track and they have all 4 holes open on their piston so trying to get as close to that with our pistons.)

Tower has the HD front shafts. As far as the bumper, your best bet would be to go directly through Pdub.

The 3 racing uni's are ok, but i prefer the HD Steel ones on the front as they are a lot stronger. Also i think the 3 racing uni's are v1 (but i use them on the rear of one of my cars anyway).
