Would like to know how you feel about this front end, during installation, etc. Have a friend that is thinking about one also...Jim

Jim,
I really liked the quality of the fat man kit. The only thing I'd change are the instructions. They sucked. They have good instructions for locating and welding the cross member in but after that nothing good. I've never put on A-arms, spindles, etc so I was expecting to see torque specs or a list of what bolt goes where. Nope. I figured it out but it was a little disappointing. But the instructions are temporary, the parts were really nice quality and the customer service has been great so far.
