Thankyou. Really had doubts about doing the work on my own, but I pulled through it. Checking the alignment today and looking for any bent suspension, I know the k member is tweaked. The normal r&r I'm familiar with, but I've got a new found respect for body shop guys.

We actually mounted it about a half inch higher but the header panel and bumper bolt straight to the fenders, the bumper support had wiggle room too. Basically all I had to modify to make it work was slot the hood latch bracket, slotted the area for the locating pins.

Took it to a sister shop, waiting on some answers. Casters pretty far out, cross caster is at+1.0. Looks like k member is the next order.
