    Yea, there is one on each lower cap as well. The lower cap comes ready to bolt on. The upper arm had to have the pin pressed out and greaseable pin pressed in.

    How do you like the trunnion eliminator kit? I'm thinking about getting it for my Runner.

    It works. I peaked at the bushings and pins while they were apart and they are only polished. As long as they stay greased often I think they should last a long time.
    Thanks! :cool:

    I can't wait to get it rolling and glammed up

    I gotcha. I'm wanting to do a small run and I figured since we both need to do a shakedown run we could try and get together so we don't hold anybody else back lol

    Sounds good! I'm going to my cousins farm to dick around tomorrow, hopefully I don't break it haha. But I'd rather break there than Gulches or somewhere like that

    I may be up in Tennessee in July. If we go I'm going to Windrock and renting side by sides. How far are you from there Andy?

    I'm definitely trying to go to Windrock this year. I think we are about 5-6 hours out. I Actually think Eric (SupraTT) and Mark (NWItaco) are supposed to make a trip there around that time as well

    I got the frontend together, but in typical fashion I will have to take it back apart to grind down my knuckle gussets some more. They are hitting the knuckle seals before full lock :mad:
