    I think you can get that foam gasket (which is failure prone) from Better Bed Lights if you needed one. They started producing a slightly thicker one to accompany their light mount.

    I've been wanting to relocate the turn signals but didn't like any of the solutions I found. Ran across a video of a guy relocating his (on an Acura I think) using and old Honda socket. Looked very similar to the ones I used.

    These sockets make it really easy.

    We are, and we have service. It sux! Hahahahaha
    I think Monte would say that "today didn't go quite as planned" for him... Hahaha

    But, he still promises to be on time tomorrow. Right now, the over/under I've got with Mike is 2 hours late. :evil:

    TBD. I have not had a lot of time on it the last two days, but it is getting better. Need the fender to calibrate how far off it is now.

    I straightened out the front body mount (a little heatin and beatin) that was sheared off using torch and porta power. I will be welding it on later today. I think that lower part of the front end is almost where it should be. The upper part of the apron is still off.20180929_110421[1].jpg

    Yeah. Driving without a sway bar on 20 year old shot suspension is not a matter of bravery, it's a matter of safety.
