Don't know if it's just the picture, but looks like you have some serious camber and toe out problems there

I have them - they will stop you fast!!!!! In fact - unsuspecting passengers can be ejected easily

Installation required a power bleeder for me.......... Gravity bleeding will not work! I almost removed this system from my cart I was struggling so much to get them bled. Once they are bled though - you will be satisfied with performance!
