    That’s nuts, I wonder if they bent the cam tabs out at all. They must not have had a really snug fit between the tabs, like using an imperial socket on a metric bolt head.

    You might benefit from some Total Chaos Tabs, beef it all up.

    I know this is old news but if you have a engine hoist you can use it to remove your cap.
    I made this arm thing out of some scrap metal square tube its pretty thin but it worked
    learned hooking it up centered is not good needs to be hooked more to the rear to level it out

    I’d rather have something homemade than something bought off the shelf.

    Yeah fair enough. The bed spreading apart is so annoying.
