    It's dynoman all over again...

    Lockheed did not "buy out" General Dynamics. They only purchased a few of their production divisions. General Dynamics is still a multi billion dollar corporation.
    If I'm putting 2 and 2 together, you seem to be saying that you worked on the Atlas rocket program for General Dynamics' Convair division (that's where Atlas was made) prior to that division's sale to Lockheed.

    This all happened when you were in high school...so I'm calling bullsh!t.

    Do you know Mark Mancinelli, by chance?

        I worked on the atlas II and AS in the late 90's before they sold it to Russia. Yes the development started in the 50s but continued into early 2000 . I did. Nacell design and engine frame controlled burn designation. This isn't BS this a fact.

            ANYWAYS... is the DriveMaster similar to the Elite chassis adjustment brackets on a modified? If so, would you say it is an improvement on it or not as good a design?

                I want to meet the guy who can feel these 1/8" 4 link height changes in a gen x car that's as flexible as one of Putins side pieces lol ... Especially after it has 10 or 12 shows on it

                  It's not so much the granularity I'm interested in. I'd like to make the adjustment simpler for the bottom left bar. I don't have much trouble with it but my help struggles getting the jack under the birdcage just right to keep the shocks from moving the bars where they don't want to go and getting the bold lined back up.

                  That being said, with the standard 5-hole bracket, I can feel a very noticeable difference in one hole adjustment on the bottom left bar in our Gen-X car.

                  We know you're not a Gen-X fan but you're in the minority amongst those who have driven them. Most consider them a pretty darn good car. To each his own, I guess.
