RE: front suspension installed

[62pluckedchicken@xxxxxxxxx]

sound fair... one cold beer coming ;)

don't think Rob checked the adjustment.. but the guy he sent me to for 
alignment said everything is tight, it may be the box..

the steering always had play. With the engine off (its power 
steering)you can move the steering wheel a couple of inches in both 
direction, with no resistance/without moving the tires at all. Is this 
just an adjustment problem? 

I don't know if I'll make it to the drags.. my Mother-in-law is playing 
havoc with my schedule.. she was suppose to be in last weekend. now it 
may be this weekend.. who knows? (and why I have to be here when she 
arrives?.. agggh)
