If that would have been me, I would have drilled a bunch of unnecessary holes, bent a bunch of stuff and hurt my back again before I found the rods were wrong. But being a Master Mechanic, I would have done it in less than 2 months.
You have no idea how close I has to getting really stupid in that very vein. Lets just say that I will be much more patient with folks whining about how they can't line up their front clip.
I have been humbled by this ordeal.
