Thank you Scott. Yes attention to detail, and I am a fanatic on that which is why weekend projects turn into multi-weekend projects. Years ago I swapped out a rusted front axle beam on a '77 Westy (in otherwise great condition, but the beam was Swiss cheese) It took me 5 weekends because I kept finding more "Well as long as I've gone this far, I might as well replace this too" and every weekend I'd place another order with a vendor for more parts. I'm sure this job will be the same!
