Alright, I may be considering a purchase next spring/summer (especially since Respeed is starting to make suspensions for these things now), but I've got a couple of questions:

1. Why were the motors blowing on the early models?
2. When they replaced the motors in them, did that correct the issue or can you also expect the replacement to fail eventually.
3. Were the tranny issues on the early models related to the Manual trannies, Autos, or both?

Thanks guys!
