    Not truck or build related. jsut sharing some family news :)

    My little brother has spent the last week in Vegas competing in the National Collegiate Wakeboard Championships. Just got word (and a picture) that he took 1st place in the intermediate class!

    He's the one on the left, not the soul stealing ginger in the right.

    Maybe try jacking up the lca to lift the spindles up and away to possibly open up more space to get the cotter pin in? Am I thinking about that right? In my head it seems like it may help the situation. I could be completely wrong here.

    did you tack them up with everything assembled? you're supposed to have everything assembled and torqued down before you tack them in place. then you can pull them off and finish weld them with confidence that everything will bolt up properly.

    Lot better than me for sure :eek:

    Nice! do you know what category he rode in?

    perks of the neighborhood we bought the house in get us access to the private beach on the chesapeake bay, as the sizeable lake. the bay is about a mile away, and the beach is about half a mile.
