Looks good. Glad things are getting back to normal for ya.

I finally finished procrastinating and ordered the magnetbra today. I'm really looking forward to covering up those dings on the 'new to me' hood.

BTW(1), I noticed one of the lock nuts on the tie rods was loose. I've also been experiencing much more tire rub since the alignment. I think I'll stop in & visit the alignment dude tomorrow.

BTW(2), Puppy is completely healthy. She put on a growth spurt last week and I think she's a little bigger than Micro now.

BTW(3), I think I mentioned it in another thread but not here ... a few weeks ago I did get the new shocks (OME) installed as well. It was pretty straight forward. The only problem I encountered was that the lower bolt on both front shocks hit the half shaft before it cleared the shock mount. I ended up driving them past the half shaft for removal and installed them bass-ackwards on the new shocks. Simple solution to a PITA problem.

The tire rub wasn't due to the alignment shop lowering the front end. I found a piece of fender skirt sticking out. It was gone quicker than it took me to type this thanks to my handy Gerber.

Alignment guy noticed that one of the tie rod boots was missing. It musta been overlooked during install. I just ordered a set of 4 from Indy4X for $10. I'll install the zirks when I put on the boot.

Haven't put the magna bra on yet. VX, sunshine & I are never home at the same time. Hopefully I'll get'r done on Saturday.

BTW, anyone waiting on HD torsion bars from Indy4X? They still haven't gotten them in yet ... but should be any time.

EDIT:

I forgot to mention that I ordered 30 bolts for $27 ... but they reamed me on shipping for $18. It's still cheaper than Fastenal @ $3 each though.
