hey guys - i just picked up a slightly used EXT pro kit. as usual, i was in a rush and didn't pay attention to the details... it's not the 'full kit'. it didn't come with towers, but that's ok - i'm running knuckleheads. but, i noticed it also doesn't come with the turnbuckles... grrrrr.... will the 2.5 length lunsford ti buckles i have now work? or are the EXT buckles a bit longer due to the increase in width? i suspect they are longer, as UE's site shows regular buckles as well as EXT buckles, which would lead me to assume there is a difference. i won't have the set for a week or so, maybe less, and i just wanted to check with you guys first.

here's a shot of what i bought:

(oh, and UE has the rear buckle set in stock, but not the front. i hope i don't need them and can use what i have! the patience of a saint is needed when something is out of stock at UE. maybe i'll email mike and see if he has any EXT buckles.)

thanks a kajillion! :)

edit: i'm not sure why the image isn't showing up, but did i just buy EXT Pro or WideMaxx Pro?
