"a tad pricey"? Yeah, like three times as much (to do a Spridget) as the
molybdenum-nylon from Winner's Circle. Sure, the Carsan is reputed to
be better, but jeez...
Did you ever notice in GRM, whenever there is someone that you have not heard
of before quoted in an article, that lo and behold, there is a NEW ad for
that person's business elsewhere in the magazine? The "separation of church
and state" of which R&T is so proud is not evident in GRM. It makes you
wonder how much trust to put in the conclusions drawn in the article about
bushings.
Has anyone seen other (perhaps less biased) reviews of Carsan as a bushing
material?
