I'll mention this thread to Les Iden (Wheelspin) and let him report the great success that his wife has had with her surgery earlier this year, and what was involved and what joint they used.

Good friend Mick Batson (lust4speed) is home resting after his successful total hip replacement ast Friday. it won't be long before he is prowling around the secretly located Pontiac Garage compound. Mrs. Spin had her full hip replacement surgery about a year ago, dropped a few pounds, and looks and acts 20 years younger .
