If you have installed the inner triangle mounts for a front swaybar you had to hack up the ledge in the gas tank compartment so the triangles will fit in the right place. I had a real hard time getting my die grinder in there and ended up cutting more than I intended to. I have about a 1/4" gap on the ledge around the triangle plus an additional notch where the nut had to pass through. What did you do to patch up the carnage? Was thinking of welding in a small sheet metal patch, but was looking for some ideas.

Drill a hole on each end of the proposed cuts.
Use a die grinder with a cutoff wheel, or a dremel to make the cut...done. Rich |
