Thanks Greg! You have to worry about the people you call friends that don't push your buttons. :lol:
Speaking of when you said taking things apart was easy compared to putting them together and making them look nice and work. Well, I didn't fully weld a couple pieces on because I figured I would be taking it all off later for paint and I wanted to make sure it all fit before I made it really difficult to take off, so I only tac welded the bottom of the two crush tube sleeves that the big 8-3/4" coilover mount bracket bolt goes into. (there are four smaller bolts that also secure the coilover mount) When I was just buttoning up the front end and putting the bolt, the I could feel that it wasn't threading in normally. My first thought, "F--- me, I screwed it up. I knew that was going to happen." Then I realized that mounting bracket was wobbling as the bolt went in. Yes, the huge 7/16 x 8-3/4 grade 8 bolt was bent, actually both were. It's funny, I was just so relieved I didn't screw things up.
