    BACKGROUND:
    So long story short; got my lift put on Saturday. 6 hour job, first time working on a IFS between a friend and I; The two of us together = a mid-level auto mechanic.

    PROBLEM:
    During the reassembly process, looks like we forgot to install the lower cushion retainer on the passenger side. Which leads me to this :
    [​IMG]

    Im afraid we rushed this that we may have forgotten to put the retainer on the driver side as well.

    Do you guys think this will be an issue if i drive on it any longer? I need to at least drive back to my buddy's house which is 10 miles away.
