How come 745lb capacity leaf springs are cheaper than 655lb capacity leaf springs and how much of a difference is it between the two capacities. Thanks in advance

If you're buying online, I'd guess they have a greater supply of the HD leafs.

Never heard of renting a Dremel before. Not sure how important precision (well balanced/straight shaft) is to you, don't imagine it's that important, but el cheapo knockoff one can be had for $20 ($15 on sale) up here in Canuckistan.

And baller *** sound stream speakers.
Needless to say at full blast i cant hear much besides music. Even at 80mph, no doors. And the hum of bajaclaws.
Moving the sound bar makes a big difference
