The quality and price are great. Have not had an opportunity to use it yet but it is pretty self explanatory. I did not have it at the track with me and we bent a tie rod. If I had this there, would have got the measurements closer to start with. Now it will go with us to every race.

I thought this product was plastic. I just received it and its all aluminum, great looking product. For $30 its a great unit to make sure you are replacing bars in your car with the corrent length.

Hi- I ordered this thinking it would work with 3/8 and 7/16 Rod Ends (quarter midget parts) but I see now that it does not... Can pieces be purchased that will allow compatibility with smaller rod ends? Thanks!!
