I just got 4 of these in the mail....
I also ordered some other small stuff needed for the build.
Seems like I am making no progress
. My pile of parts is not shrinking.

I started to install my carbonetic 2 way lsd into the FD pumpkin. I also installed my 4.30 ring and pinion gear set and brand new Mazda OEM bearings and seals. I am ready to install the diff cover but I got lazy and will finish that up tomorrow.
As it sits tonight.
I came home to a box from Japan. I had ordered super now front stabilizer brackets and a KSP attain carbon fiber exhaust guard. Both pieces look great. I am very happy the attain piece is twill weave so it matches everything else.

I wont be mounting the gurad for a while; plus you did not say please
.
Yea, right, It seems like once I finish something I realize there are 2 other things I need to do. It seems never ending
I went with the 2 way because I got it much cheaper than retail. Almost everything I read says a 1.5 way is better for my application, I will use it and see if i like it, if not I can buy the parts to convert it to a 1.5 way and it still will be cheaper than if I bought a 1.5 way from the beginning.

John, I really like the grease zerks idea as well. Very nicely engineered.

Thanks, but the grease zerk idea is not mine, I saw another member do that a few years ago, and it is fairly common for people to do so on other forums. It helps prevent the poly bushing from squeaking. Otherwise you need to remove the suspension to grease it and will then need an alignment.
BTW, Tom I print Benjamins.

When are you going to learn to capitalize the first letter of a sentence and the first letter of peoples names?
