Installed the lunsford rocker arm posts. What an improvement over stock. They have a much better design (as stated above) and went in without a problem
The Hardcore skid on the other hand... I am not so impressed with. I, and the LHS, were under the impression that it replaced the skids on the Revo. Nope... it replaces the center skid but just covers up the front and rear skid. This I think is because they were too lazy to so some more machining to accomodate stock parts like hinge pin retainers. That and the fact that it needed to be bent to match the locations where it should be mounted. I will try to get pics up tomorrow. I e-mailed hardcore basically saying that I was not impressed to see how they responded... oh well. Looks nice though... (And I did file down the stock skids to only what was necessary to mount the skid to and retain the hinge pins.)
As for what was talked about earlier reguarding the removal of the steering stop... it can be removed completely. It was only a cover for half of the hinge pins. The stock front skid is what actually holds the hinge pins in. I got rid of it completely.
