    I just ordered one. Looks like a nice product. Thanks for offering it. No issues from me if a forum sponsor wants to promote their products.

    Couple of thoughts. I don't know why you would have it in the stowed position on the frame, as opposed to just having it in the trunk when not in use. Having to uninstall it just to re-install it seems like a PITA. It would be much faster, when stuck on the side of the road, to just pull it out of the trunk and install it. Second, your video illustrates just how painfully slow it is to remove and install it with a regular wrench. A ratcheting wrench would make short work of this, and likely cut the install time in half, given how little ground clearance there is and how tight things are under there. I understand that as a new vendor trying to get on your feet, cost is an issue, but for what you're charging for this kit a ratcheting wrench would be a nice add.

    I ordered one as well. I am an engineer, and no stranger to metal working, but for the material and labor savings the price is right. I will just use my own ratcheting wrench. I almost never use normal wrenches anymore unless the ratcheting ones dont fit.
