Not real excited about modding the lower A-arm. It'll be an easy hack with the cutoff wheel. I knew I had to do it though.
Should I have staggered the adapters and went with the 1.75 thickness up front? I don't think they are machining them 'til Monday.
Ordered the vette filter on-line from RockAuto.com ($31.xx) plus some other items. Turned a local cost of $160 into $95. Made the shipping wait time worth it.
