<< Jack at MSS does not favor the freewheel system. He seems to feel it compromises an already weak link in the chain. He told me he has installed them for customers who sourced their own parts, but only under protest. >>
Hehe - Well, to be sure, Jack drives his Saabs a tad differently than the average person. :-)
Having said that, many folks have used freewheeling for the life of their Saabs -- with virtually no problems -- once they learned how to use it properly. I will agree with Jack that it is one of the "weak link[s]" in the system, but it's not a problem if you use it correctly.
