Re: [DML] Spec .02 Steering -- Success

["brobertson5939" <brobertson5939@xxxxxxxxx>]

Houston Part #100840SS advertises stainless U joints (don't know for certain if they are Borgeson, but they do look extremely similar: http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash4/250791_419473391431250_795529762_n.jpg )

Toby's lower column definitely uses stainless Borgeson U joints.

Spec .02 is functionally/actually identical (DD shaft for the prototype) to those options, with the addition of a vibration reducing U joint -- stainless of course.

Given the amount of money owners spend on stainless DMC loco doodads, a 16% premium -- $30.12 -- for stainless U joints seems reasonable to me.
