Ga's for ultimate strength (read overkill in strength) FLM's for weightsaving.

I sold my GA7075's to get a set of the FLM's (weightissue)

FLM makes the GA bulks, in case you didn't knew..

As simple as that.

FLM makes/produces the GA bulks.

Nothing more, nothing less, i noticed this when i put them next to eachother.

so knowing this....who makes the center brace for GA.......Everyone here knows about my front Ue arm...that I bent.....well I think where my hinge pins go thru on one of my bulks has some slop in the holes now.....so when I order new front arms from UE...I figured I might as well replace the bulks as well....since it's all apart anyways......

I agree with Serum, GA bulks are absolute overkill. I reckon your best off just biting the bullet, and getting the FLM bulkless

yes, the 8 spyders will fit and well the cases will go for about 60 bucks on ebay. i would get the bulkless and sell the cases. then you would only have about 90 in the bulkless.

if money is issue get the regular bulks. I would go flm for sure. If you mess them up send them back to get them replaced.


Peace!

I might just get the bulks...beacause the 8 spyders plus diff cases are a little over 6 months old...with only a few runs on them...due to winter....
