Default Jimfab & Z10 X-Member - WTB? Reviews? bushings? ASAP!

I have a crossmember made by a local race shop.. very poorly, well one of the radius arms broke and i'm sick of the piece of **** squeeking and just being completely unsafe so fuckit. I'll buy a new one thats actually made by people who know what they're ******* doing... (car towed off freeway, almost freakin killed me when it broke. i'm pissy.. nuff bitchin')

So Z10 crossmember. overpriced but reliable.
What modifications are required? lower radiator support removal? - run civic radiator? towhook cutting?
Are there bushings at the eyelets on the tie rod ends?

Jimfab crossmember
No moving the radiator Support?! will a DC header on a B16 clear it?
Looks like teflon coating works as the bushing for the end.
Who has bought one and installed it? happy?

Thanks HT members! ~ Peter

95-99 Neon Non-AC radiator fits either one and it is half size like the Civic radiator.
Anyone else have any comparisons between the two bars? How important is the pre-load adjustment on the radius arms?

Thanks
Ben
