Those sure looks purdy, the truck too. Have fun with the install, looks like your making headway..How about some install shots during and after would be cool, I'm sure a strong percentage of us will be tackling this job sometime in the future..

I did. Haven't installed them yet. Sitting on my workbench looking good except the UPS gorillas played soccer with the box and the bellows got dinged up a bit.

Richard, All I can offer is you need to leave everything loose until you get it all connected then tighten stuff down.

Good luck, you're almost there.

Might have to loosen the turbo to get the Baby's Butt to line up to match the pin to the hole.
