    Guess Im blind...

    :eek::eek:Is that price for real!!! I thought they were only 600ish!:eek::eek:

    Do you have to get the aftermarket uniball and bushing or will the original fit? I thought all the parts needed were included in the main kit.

    And THATS 100% with the NEW dam!
    No way! I have never had to park far away. There are 5 designated launch areas. (1)3 lane, (3) 4 lane, (1) 10 lane, and god knows how many raods to launch from that are now under water. They also have a shuttle, so IF you have to park in one of the parking lots, they drive you back to the peir. Most of the time I launch from a beach, and park where I launch.
    They have "Bathroom Islands" set up in different areas, and a pontoon boat called "Lake Dogs" that cruises around selling AWSOME dogs! :)

    I'm curious, why is the bolt that holds the UCA in installed backwards when you bolt in the TC UCAs? I would think that you'd want the head of the bolt on the top of the decline, with the nut at the bottom (which is how it looks stock if I recall). If the nut ever fell off (God forbid), gravity might hold the bolt in.

    Oh yeah.....Next one will be better. Just dont try to make a race out of it and forget something. If you get it done under 2 hours, your doing good. Be thurough, and dont leave a nut un torqued. :)

    How do you torque the uca nut? The fender is always in the way and its too much to bend.
