Just a question, really. would it make any difference if you put those spacers below the wheel carriers? they are secured by a grub screw right? will it go down eventually?

I really need to pick up the white truck mount. Looks so good on your build and I'm stuck with black ones.

Thanks i got lucky when i bought my 10T for parts it had a white front bulkhead. Let me look around i may just have another.

Qes there is a screw below the carrier holding the pin in. Im not sure if that is the right way to do things but i felt like there was a ton of slop between the carrier and the spindle so i put 2 washers in there to take up the slop. I looked at my t4 i have and the guy that built that did the same thing so i kinda just followed along. Not saying its right or wrong. Hopefully the experts will chime in.

Little more blue bling installed thanks chophead69 for drilling out the tubes to run the nose plate in the short and long positions. All the darn 1.50ft turnbuckles are sold out on ebay so waiting for them and the 1.65s to show back up and I can get back to assembly
