I agree with this. Lance Williams (FJ55) said he called Marlin to ask
about 5.29rc gears. Lance said Marlin was running electrics with 5.29s
himself. I then asked Lance if he was 100% certain that was what Marlin
said. Lance said he asked Marlin multiple times and Marlin said he was
running electrics. So, I then asked this list to confirm this,
specifically someone who has seen Marlin's truck recently. Lance was real
sure of it. So, I was just trying to confirm what Marlin was running. I
really didn't want to call Marlin since I don't know him and never bought
from him. So, now I got two conflicting stories from two people that both
claimed to have talked to Marlin. Neither have actually seen Marlin's
truck recently.
