I rest my case on my above post. Sorry for your carnage though. I run the finned billet top caps now and so far so good on the uppers. The propshafts are still weak but thats next.

So, where can I get this NEO oil and for how much? Also, is there two different types of the NEO? Or does NEO (The company) just manufacture this new NEO? I'm confusing myself arent I?
