Default why so technical?

There are a plethora of Ford, GM, Olds/Pontiac, Mopar and other non-make, symetrical housing ends. It is empathetically too generic to just say "Ford big bearing ends"... as there are six different big Ford ends. And if its not a Ford pattern... it is merely a housing end... which you then need to be even more specific on which one it is.

It is much eaiser to be understood when you dont speak in generalities.
When you call Moser up and order a new 12 bolt does it make sense to get chevy style housing ends and run c-clips? Or just make it easy and order ford style housing ends and get the pressed bearing so you do not need to worry about c-clips. Why do have to make things so technical. I have been watching you here for months. It is obvious you have a wealth of technical information stored in your brain and you enjoy letting people know just how much technical info you have stored upstairs. Thank you, I do not know how myself and others would get by without the wealth of tech you so gladly fill these pages with. I always have my dictionary standing by too, so I can understand some of the technical words you like to throw around. Plethora, who even uses that word? Couldn't you have used a word like plenty, a lot, many. You know, something most people are used to seeing and using. P.S. I think you like splitting hairs.
