The one major problem was with the factory drivers side leaf spring. I dont know WTF was going on with the top bolt, but the head of the bolt faced the inside of the frame right next to the gas tank. There was no way an impact wrench was fitting in there. Less than half and inch or so between the tank and the head of the bolt (with no nut on the outside end) Needless to say there was much cussing and the angle grinder made a brief apperance, but we got it out of there and everything work out nice. All in all we had it done by 3:30 am Saturday night!
p.s. I am going to finish the front conversion to an 06' Harley, just need to get some coin together for the round fog light bumper, and Harley Valance....
