Almost had a very bad accident in my 69 today. I lost my brakes, steering and almost a whole wheel when comin back from a car show on the highway. I'm glad we are all okay.

Holy crap.... I am really glad you are OK. I second the "what happened". Any damage ?

Hey Shaun, they sent me 3/8 hardware with my shocks which i was happy cause the stuff up there was mismatched and boogiered up.

But the 3/8 stuff that came with the shocks doesn't fit thru the top shock perch... i got grade 5 - 5/16 bolts that will fit. its that or ream the upper shco mounting spt out a lil...

what did you use or reuse?
