PROS AND CONS......
PROS.......I HAVE THEM ON MY 400, AND HAD THEM ON MY "R" BEFORE I SOLD IT. MY EXPIERENCE HAS BEEN THAT YOU STOP BETTER WITH THEM. YOUR STOCK LINES SWELL UNDER EXTREME CONDITIONS EASILY. WHERE AS THE STEELE BRAIDED LINES DON'T, ALLOWING YOU TO GET THE MOST FROM BRAKING. MAKE SURE YOU ORDER +2'S IF YOUR A-ARMS ARE +2"S........I CAN'T THINK OF ANY CONS.......ANYONE?

I just got off the phone with Scott from LSR. I didn't give them any billing information when I called...

I know i sounded rude.. But I asked what the status was... I mean, heck it's been over a week. Scott said that they were sent out yesterday. I was kinda shocked since I haven't paid for them or anything... He just said that whenever I get the chance, call them and give them the credit card number. I was like.. okay, cool, thanks alot, maybe I will be able to race next weekend. Then we hung up

Around a minute later, the phone rings.. Caller ID picks up some weird number.. Long Distance. It's Scott. He just called me back to inform me that it would be a C.O.D, and to have $57.00 ready.

I dunno, I just thought it was really great that a company would say it's cool to pay whenever, and then call you back at their charge just to tell you that they made a boo-boo. Great marks for LSR!!

Also, If you have PEP shocks, they have Zero Preload Settings, not Sag Control. TCS uses sag control.

Mx400exer, im one step closer to dusting you!! LOL

They should seat into your spindals or steering stem. Actually, since you had yours reamed, I honestly dont know how it will work. On my 250r, there is a notch in there that makes them seat in there and not turn, I doubt that your reamed ones have this. Maybe try holding them with some channel locks and then tightening, but that might tear the ball joint rubber boot thing. I dont know.
