I think Mel is the only person who would know or should be saying how superfluous or not the parts are that his shop offers and how much money he does or does not make on the things he sells.
But then, you may work for ORE and have decided to inform everyone he offers superfluous parts at high markup prices.

Actually, no I don't work for Mel, ORE, EVO or Dynatrac. But I have had a conversation or two with him about it, (many of us know Mel better than you might imagine) the first conversation about axles being almost 5 years ago when I took my jeep in to begin its build and I wanted sleeves, gussets, trusses..... It is what I had run in the past and thought it was the best option for the money. Mel flat out said it was not worth it, just go with Dynatrac ProRock 60's. 49,000+ miles later on my build and I have to say, he steered me right.
And please don't write words that I did not write. I never stated "high mark up prices" I implied, maybe poorly, that his shop stands to make more money off a customer in labor fees when you compare the time it takes to bolt in a Dynatrac axle as opposed to the tear down, fab work, welding, and rebuild and install of a factory axle that has been sleeved, trussed, gusseted.
