Geezus Krist guys . . ..... let's cut the dude some slack.

I've also heard the same info & then not seen a finished product. I believe I'll just wait & see what happens w/o insulting him. If it doesn't happen, no big deal.

Case in point: You would think a company that builds suspension parts, specifically a-arms, could make a set for these trucks in little to no time to sell to the general public.

When I learned AirRide was going to make tubular arms for these trucks, it was almost 2yrs before the first production run was actually built. They didn't supply pics either, but eventually I got some.

Patience grasshoppers.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

YET. lets see some teaser shots if they're so far along.

im curious how a 16 year old has connections like this, yet there are many more who have been into building trucks for 10 years or more, and they havent come up with a solution yet.

Comments like that don't help your position either. Patience was meant for everyone.

Age means nothing... If I wouldve offered to do some custom work on a guys car when I was 15 years old, they would've laughed in my face......UNTIL they saw the work. If you're getting somewhere, keep at it man.

WTF? It's already installed in a truck but it does not work. You have done no field testing yet you already have an estimated completion date and price.
If it's already in a truck give us a shot from the outside with the window rolled up--this won't leak any internal details/patents pending, etc. If not, the deal is obviosuly Not trying to be harsh but if you provide a little verifiable tease it will greatly increase your credibility and initial sales

If you guys would read the thread you might see that iceman7329 states the kit is being designed at a place where

which tells you he has some inside information that he is trying to share, but is not the one designing the kit.

I asked you to please keep it civil, but you chose not to. Since I don't see this heading anywhere but downhill, it's time to put it to bed....
