Hey Bernd, I was hoping you'd respond to this one. :) Any difference in the
HD unit physically that would cause me any probs? Width, spring perches, etc.?
Or can I grab one out of a Ram and slap it in? Rebuilding my existing unit is
cost prohibitive thanks to all the press-fit stuff that eats up shop time.
Thanks,
Brett Forehand
