couple more pictures. Strut perch is a little different. xB strut doesn't have bracket for tie rod end. XB shock hole is a lot larger.

I'm currently in Ohio and will not be returning for a while to open the Raceland box. I just want everybody know that I'm sorry if I got anyone's hopes up. I was assured by so many folks at Raceland but looking at Garms pictures that he has posted don't look very promising. Looks like I will be returning them and receiving my full refund. Thanks for the camber bolt and rear spacers I ordered Garm, very quick process and got my tracking number same day today.

^ You get major props for jumping on it for all of us. I'm sure Raceland will do right by you if they don't work, Cody over there seems like a real nice guy.

Here's a good reminder as to why they're not reliable suspension components:

Who did that install? What about the extra holes there? All these pictures look more like bad install, too much torque or an accident (big pothole, hit a big curb etc.) to me.

PS: No, i don't have a D2 nor a K-Sport coilover.

I wonder if quality(not saying it's not user error) has improved over the last 5 years. A lot can change in that amount of time...
