yes I considered the ATI but it was a few dollars more than the Innovative. I don't know if ATI has a truck balancer available yet (probably so at this point)
I sent a stock GM damper in to Innovative for my current 8"/8rib setup, so I know for sure they have what they need to make a truck balancer in any configuration you'd like.

Lookin good Grippy. Just read thru the thread, you're doing things the Military way. All these guys that are laughing at your methods don't realize how **** we get with parts and whatnot in the service. The bagging and tagging, as you know, is standard fair. I do exactly the same when ever I tear something apart.
Looking forward to seeing it finished.
I had one thing to add about the post below.
You're mostly right about the white being better for aluminum. However, it's going to depend on what you're doing. If you're just cleaning a raw surface, or taking off light build up, they will work fine. If there's any type of paint or heavy carbon buildup on there however, you do have to step it up to the yellow discs. The white one's pretty much come apart, and then you have a FOD issue. I usually work it down to an acceptable level with the yellow then do the finish work with the white. That's all the white one's were really meant for anyway.
Looking forward to seeing it finished.
