Sure is amazing being retired for the short time that I have, and Friday is just another day!
Bring em on I can take it. lol
You'll find the days just fly by not like when you were working full time. Seemed like Friday was never going to arrive.

For sure and Monday was the longest day of the week and Friday seemed to be the busiest.

You are going to really like the new front end Fred, and no not that one, the other one. Be sure and check and re tighten bolts a couple of times after first few drives. Mine was notorious for loosening up the first few passes. Then it settled in real nice.

Glad your here need to ask you if I should use blue lock tight on the K member to frame bolts

Optional, I do not. But I remove mine somewhat regularly. If you don't, just check them for a bit until you have confidence in them. That is not where mine loosened up. It was some of the ancillary parts.

The directions say to use anti seize on every thing. is that a good idea.

Fred, I will take a pix of the worst offenders for loosening up this weekend and send it to you. Keep in mind I likely treat mine much harsher than you will. You may not have any issues. I think the base catalyst for mine loosening up was the hard launches whereas nose got lifted a bit then crushed on landing. I am not gentle to the Cuda!

I use anti seize based on location and potential for tearing it back apart. As a general rule I am a fan of both anti seize and lock tight. Keep in mind all I have to do is get near a anti seize jar and it jumps all over me. It is worse than pipe dope.

Yea mine won't pull the tires off the ground. I think this front end will solve all my tire ware problems and feel better hitting over 100 mph.

Morning Biff sorry about your uncle.
Yes suspension part # is 721HK02CRA1. My total with shipping and tax was 2,835.93
Good day fellows. I'm thinking Fred and Biff's front suspension application may be different. Not sure on that but I'm sure the supplier knows. No precipitation here yet but they say it's coming. Calling for a foot in higher elevations.
Gonna have my first try at matching a tri-coat color today, Pearl white. Got me some let down cards. WISH ME LUCK. Again have a great Friday folks. I'll take some pics and show the process if any one cares. Ha!
Good luck BP , no easy job!

If you end up in a tight spot the anti-sieze will help you get out.
