so i get the bearings pressed onto the hubs and the hubs pressed into the arms. I get them home and find the square brakets w/ four holes that go between the hub/bearing sitting on the bench. SOAB! So i get them apart with much trouble and have to reassemble the bearings since they popped all apart, bolt the brakets on and repress the hubs in. All worked well exept the ps wheel i noticed a VERY small amt of play in the hub when working it side to side. IM thinking this will leave once the axels are bolted in ...What do you guys think? Dont tell me i need another pair of new bearings??!!!! IT is very very little. JUst enough you can feel it w/ the wheel on.

ANyways, i set the car on all four and everything fits very well. I dont have any rotors on it so i had to use some hollow lugs to hold the wheels on until i figure out what rotors to get for the rear since the wheel sits in alittle more. I have an amazing inch of clearance between the frame and tire once bolted on W/O the rotors on. DOnt know if im gonna need fender flares though..we'll see. Forgot the camera sorry, maybe tomorrow.
