They're local too in Bakersfield. Steve @ FTS is a real good guy too.

Can't go wrong with a RK kit either.

I made my own. It's a 1/4 20 Alan bolt thats about 3" long, 1 washer, 1 nut and the anvil which I made out of a 1" wide piece of steel. I can take pics of it tomorrow. I do have a tool that came with my poisonspyder rocker and b pillar skins that is brand new I could sell u for cheap. All it is is a bolt, nut and some washers.

I tried that damn tool and it was too cumbersome to work with, so I bought that harbor freight one for like $14.

Too much kung fu power LOL. I got the hang of it after a couple trials. The trick I found is to pump it once, open halfway to insert that silly little looking wrench to close the gap, then pump again to finish the squeeze. it's a bit of a pita, but I really wanted my body skins on that day! Especially after drilling 42 holes into my perfectly good jeep
