Ok, I'll take yer word on it. I just ordered the blocks from Summit for
$21.69 they should be here on Thursday.

Scott, I think you or someone else posted to me months ago on the
procedure for putting these puppies on. Would whoever did that be so
kind as to post a how to one more time??? It looks like you just undo 4
bolts remove the U bolts, insert the block and put on the new longer U
bolts and bolt it back up. But I'd feel better hearing from someone who
has done this before.

Thanx.
