    ^^^ what he said. I've been running stocks on the rear of my vi for 2 years never no issues. Catvos 3" and 2" spring pucks. And I run it hard. The fronts gave me issues.

    No, got it from Amazon. It is a Sixity? Supposed to be heavy Duty, chrome moly steel, it has a slightly larger diameter than stock.

    Break it and bend it. Nice. Well, it can always live on as a tire thumper. Or a bass thumper for Timmi.
