Yeah we are supposed to be piggybacking on their order for a better price. unlike transits older alp's 46's the new ones will be geared for 125mph and self lapping brakes.The AEM 7DC Motors are on their last legs especially the DC ones all these years of hard pounding are killing them and they don't run well in the summer months excessive heat. we all are in agreement that they won't survive another summer without major work. The reman AC AEM 7'S are ok for now |
