From: in my house
Well, the boxing plates went in pretty well, no hiccups there, did have to do a slight bit of trimming on the remaining front crossmember of my truck, but that was due to lax assembly at the factory.
Then, I got to cut the new crossmember out after I somewhat welded it in, only to realize i leveled it like it said in the notes, and then realized I leveled it while it was at eye level on the hoist(so it was easy to weld) and not when the bleeping frame was level too.
All in all, if I hadnt made a bonehead move in the morning and had two houses to go to for easter dinner, it would have been almost completely done today.
will say one thing about the kit, steve's welding makes my stuff look that much worse though.
