yes they are made here in costa rica the studs are marked 8 but we both know how that stuff goes sometimes. i am changing them anyways. Yes i am using the cones.
lol ok. i have located a big problem. the shaft has not been moved from anywhere. the hole in the firewall has no catch in it to hold the shaft steady. it is also at the wrong angle for sure. i am in process of fixing that this week. That does explain the blown out steering boxes but a bigger...
