thank you! I'm actually gonna make new bullet pins out of stainless steel so splitting won't happen again.

I'm kinda partial to this color as my XJ is Indigo as well. I really like it.

The BDS are Grade 5, which I like because they stretch easier for torquing. The grade 8 snap to easy for u-bolts. Just my opinion, plus I just got a set myself.
