      Wow, what a waste of $60! I have no idea why I just received two supposed upgrade cables that are freakin' .150 cable???? Those are going in the trash! It even says .187 on the site! On top of that, they have no flats in them at all!! Never buy from this guy, ever!!!! Is he a damn stoner or what?

          Are you referring to the wire drives?

            I just wrote you Crazykevin. Something was wrong with my site as it came across as 150 on paypal. I thought it odd as well but I get many custom items. Send those back and I will replace them. No reason go friggin nutty over something like this. Do not trash them. I am getting the specs on the flats but most just file a flat where they need them. And no, I am not a stoner.

                  I love this reply. Jeff, are you sure your not a stoner? Lol just kidding! Your right, some people are quick to get uptight, no need for it tho. It'll be ok.

                    Jeff has been around a long time and has an outstanding reputation. He has offered to take care of you perhaps you could cut him a bit of slack.

                    "Is he a damn stoner or what?" << This type of thing will get you no where in a hurry on this forum.

                    Have a great weekend!

                        Thanks gents...even I make mistakes. I will fix it and even offer him something to calm him down. I do stand behind my items I make. Most just resell but I have to be in a shop and make this stuff. I am now getting ready to make wire drives for the voracity and the skater.

                          Thanks....I Made Pauls a little longer for bigger props. Do you see that is needed as well? Another 1/4" perhaps?

                            I don't think so. With the drive dog at 28mm, my 447's fit fine with a prop nut AND a bullet. So if people are running a bigger shank prop, theres still enough room for a prop nut, and have threads left.

                              I know there may be a lot of drama going on, but not getting a answer or remark to what is asked is either not seen or, laughed at. I am trying to mod the twin and hit 70 mph keeping it stock. I am here to post my ideas and trial/error mistakes, thought we all were. I have asked questions, and nothing but " I didn't get my order, bah bah bah is a pot head" lol give it a break guys.

                                I ordered wire drives from Jeff after seeing them posted here, but that's it, no remarks from people that posted them, why post them if you don't follow up?
