Not too long ago I bought a new, never-installed Fatman MII IFS kit for my '55.2. I got a GREAT deal on it off Craigslist but I didn't know about the slots vs. shims issue. I probably would have bought it anyway even if I'd known because I saved about $500. I read about the issue later.
I can't remember if I saw it here or on the HAMB but someone posted a photo of a minor modification for that type IFS kit that solves the alignment change issue that happens too easily with the slot type upper control arm mounts if you bump a curb, etc. The photo shows added vertical "ears" with nuts & bolts to prevent the "slipping" the slts can allow.
Does anyone know what I'm talking about and if so can you post a photo or a link to it?
