Looks to me like you click on the yes votes and you see the list and then count how far down the list you are. I'm guessing he will contact the first bunch of people on the list and query whether they are still interested in purchasing and go from there, most likely.

No, not actually, that list is random, it's not in the order of voting.

Early adapters rule.

I'm a first year original owner, does that give me precedence?

I'd advocate @Msfitoy and Josh Mills if he's still lurking but his last posts are indeed years ago - be in the first round since they will likely provide the best testimony and possibly a YouTube video to promote it.

No deposit needed, once I'm done with the first batch and feedback is good, I will order a much larger next batch, at that point it would only be 3-4 weeks until they are available.
I am retired and have my 21 Ranger in my garage just waiting for for installation !!!!!!

While waiting on the hoses, I have been working on dialing in the marks and double checking them, my truck, a buddies truck and I kept coming up with a slight variation, about a 1/16" of a inch.

In short, the hose expands, took me a lot of on and off installs both hot and cold, checking stock dipstick to my dipstick and even a multi temp oven test to verify.

My fixture was dialed into the hole on the stick... cold, but hot, I got this much variation, so now I've adjusted the fixture and the fitting length so it's accurate hot.

The pic is with a hot hose, cold it lines perfectly, I know that transmission fluid levels are just a range, but I figure I better get it exact, you guys are a tough crowd, it's gotta be right!!

Well, one thing, I'm going stir crazy waiting on the hoses, I was able to get 2 of them, so I've been installing them on my truck, on goes one, then swapping the other one in, comparing, same on a buddies truck, that's how I found the variance, pulled out the hot hose, put in the cold hose, off just a hair, so it's been good to have this down time waiting on the hose order.

Hasn't anyone told you there is no such thing as "exact"? That is an absolute term and there are no absolutes. Everything has a tolerance.
