No problem, read over it and see what's available and what you want.

On my newest build I'm doing the s10 bastard packs.

But for now, bed time.

Just caught this.

The answer is yes.

I would recommend you buy new ones from ironrockoffroad. They have bent, adj. Ones for $160 iirc.

Or just keep an eye out for someone selling some.

I hate when that happens! LOL

A $15 Harbour Freight 4" grinder makes easy work of all 4 eyes in 15 minutes. You could use a sawzall but you'd miss out on the thrill of having sparks shoot up your pants leg.
