[QUOTE="Mojo88, post: 15803463, member: 184279"] Scott, I held a straight piece of pipe up there and the brace will easily clear the tranny and bellhousing. It looked like there was one there before, as I could see the marks where the bolts were. The really troubling thing was the two missing 14mm fasteners. There's one fastener on each side of the big bushing you see in the pic, which is for the lower a-arm. So each big bushing had a missing fastener. I'm glad I was looking around and spotted those missing 14mm pieces, as they are critical. Think about it.... someone was running this car at the track at 130mph with the front end ready to come loose... that's scary stuff. I gotta say though, this kinda stuff happens all the time when you farm work out to shops. The guys are always in a hurry, busy with a dozen different projects, so it's easy to forget some things.
