Raven, thank you for that site. It is very cool.

I have not had time to look at the manual to see if I can find it, but I will.

I spent yesterday getting the rear shock crossmember out, 4 rivets and they were a pain. Then I took off the one shock bracket, only 2 rivets and they were also a pain.

The other shock bracket had been ripped off when the frame was working, and they used two bolts and some acetylene weld to put it back together. I had already gotten that bracket off, but had to grind off the weld. That took about 2 hours.

Then the real work began! The crossmember was warped and bent out of shape from when the shock was ripped out. So, I used my 3/4" steel work table top, and a piece of 3/8" x 2" angle, 5 C-clamps and a 4 lb hammer to straighten that crossmember. 4 hours later, and both arms wore out, I bolted it back in, and it fits and is straight to the eye.

Now to take it back out and weld up the damaged are, grind and make sure it is still straight.
