I was surprised that the cap with the o-ring is the same diameter as the large end of the axle (1.120"). I was expecting it to be held in place by the o-ring only. (No, I haven't read the instructions yet.

Got the Sputhe rear today. $239.00 cash COD included the $25 shipping (to me) and money order fee. (The post office makes out a money order and mails it to the sender.)
It's heavy. The black parts appear to be cast iron/steel.

Sputhe rear stabilizer loosely assembled to new rear isolator.

Now....to replace the hardware with ARP or not...that is the question.

If you do end up replacing the sputhe supplied bolts, let me know what size they are or if you're interested I'd love to buy them if you aren't going to use them. I didn't even get my stabilizer in any sort of vacuum sealed package... mine just came loose in a usps flat rate small shipping box. I don't even think I got hardware with it. I moved, and it could've been misplaced in the move however the box was still closed and is to this day. With no hardware, so who knows. I'd love to get bolt specs if you could make it easy on me.
Build is looking good man. Looks like you've been getting quite a lot of goodies. Also, let us know how you like those shocks. Been debating them for myself.
