This customer installed their own Metco links last week and went racing on them making some 12 second passes. Can you see what is out of place in this picture? At least we caught it on the lift before the spring bolt came all the way out. I think installing fuel filters backwards is funny but this is serious business here. Feel free to ask for help or to look over major mods like this..

Hmmm...the front hanger bolt. That thing is a beast....should be torqued to 200, right? I've got mine torqued by feel right now as my wrench doesn't go up that high. Coincidentally, I'd planned on having you check the torque on those two bolts next time I was over for service. Me thinks I'll keep an eye on them until I do.

I like seeing these when my truck isn't involved and being poked fun at :rll:
