Could well be true; although last I checked the
A1's and 2's were a lot lighter then they type II's
especially the vanarats..I'm still pretty happy the
way I went all considered, and will put my 2 cents in
for both Ron, and Ken. I've never had a problem with
quality from the times I've done business with them.

I've been using these for years on my A-1s & A-2s.  Never had any
problems.  Glad to see that they now offer Transporter shafts.  The
last ones I had done were from a local rebuilder.  Works great but
not lifetime warrantee.  I have put 5 sets of brake pads on my 88
Bronco II with this warranty,  AKA 500,000 miles.  All for one low
initial price!  $20.  I hate myself but I do it anyway.
