Default Question on ride-str8

Hi all,

American Iron did a story on true-trak install that I read with interest. I have however decided to go with the ride-str8 based on info from our forum. I was wondering if the cross member has to be realigned with the ride-str8 as it is required to be with the true-trak? I have checked the ride-str8 website but there is not a lot of info on it, unless I missed it.

Also, is the website the only place to buy ride-str8? I noticed they do not accept credit cards.

Thanks as always

Ride Str8 needs no cross member attention, but check out TWR.

The dogbone crossmember isn't involved at all with the ride-str8 which is why you can install it and still use a center stand.
