    Um idk to be honest. All of the tabs on the parts I used were broke so the grille and headlights are held in with Stainless steel zip ties and outdoor silicone

    thanks

    THanks they are strong as hell too!

    Thanks man. What part of the rack are you talking about? the whole bedcage or the fold down light bar?

    Replaced my bushings and sleeves
    Drilled and Tapped Greese Zerks into the Arms

    Things I need to Finish:
    Rebuilding my CVs - Will be doing that tonight
    Press out and replace Driver side Uniball
    Install the new heims (Doing tonight)
    Weld a few small cracks and add Alignment gussests I made
    Re-install everything and get aligned. Shooting for being done Tomorrow night.

    Every time we work on my truck or his, he always is dressed nice and looks nice and clean. Throws on the coveralls works than takes them off and looks normal while I'm covered in grease and dirt!

    Best things ever unless its hot out. They're really hard to find out here. Both my dad and I bought some when we were in New Mexico Last fall because they sell them at WalMart there for $25. But they didn't have Small so I roll the legs on them.

    Yeah that picture was from the other day. The garage has more parts on the floor now. I'm just happy I'm finally doing it. I've been putting this off for a Year now.

    Really, usually dry cleaners sell them (they supply them to most shops around town here) or a work supply store maybe:cool:

    Yeah it's a pain in the ass but it feels good to know you did it, Winter kicked the crap outta my truck, all the uniballs are seized right into the cups, along with the mis-alignment spacer, gotta love winter :rolleyes:
