While doing so, i would like to replace them with a kit that uses bushings. also, I need to install the mirror bracket into the assembly. If I install everything now, will there be enough room to paint it properly? If I paint first then assembly, I am concerned that I will damage the paint during the installation. Any suggestions where to buy the longer style pins, and bushing kit?
Installation suggestions appreciated as well. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2001 Posts: 3,458 Extreme Gabster | | Extreme Gabster Joined: Oct 2001 Posts: 3,458 | They were probably assembled before they were painted at the factory.
