@jointdocShields @CenterRotation @NaanDerthaal @DrLeeRubin @DrChadKrueger @BrianChalmersMD @jaimelbellamyDO Summit stem and pinnacle cup. Up and in is a bummer. Tantalum cup & inferior screws to compliment the dome screws. cement the biggest id liner or polar liner if that tickles your fancy. They are a bitch to revise if constraint is needed down the road. Punt the cage to the moon.
