[urq] To Tilton or not....

[Buchholz, Steven]

... ThePartsConnection regularly runs this part in their weekly specials ...
I think it was on last week's special.  Give Rod a call to see what sort of
price he can give you ... I haven't been looking too closely for this, but I
seem to remember that Rod's price was similar to what you're saying a Tilton
goes for ... 

Of course if you are planning to modify your braking system it might be
better to do the Tilton anyway just to have that flexibility when the time
comes ... 

IUD!
