Re: Friday Night Math Quiz

Lots of great comments and suggestions!

- As to the bushing hardware for the radiator support, they are new but not fully tighten as I wanted to get everything aligned before snugging things up.

- The comment about the grill and bumper matching up does bring up a good point that maybe the frame rail is bent on the passenger side and adding height to the radiator support would throw the line off.

- Can't be a coil spring as its a 62 and has its original front suspension. I did replace the front shocks after the last picture above was taken but it did not affect the height on the one end of the support.

- Someone mentioned cab mounts -- I made an attempt to replace them with the poly kit that LMC sells but I could not get the front mounts to fit so I put back the original mounts and they too are not snugged down yet as I'm still fitting sheet metal. Could an adjustment here have an effect on the radiator support via the inner fender???

The weather great up here this weekend in the PNW so armed with the knowledge that you guys have imparted, I'm going to focus on this issue and get some more measurements, new pictures and see what we can come up with.

Thanks again to all of you for your feedback!
