I hear you on this. My concern is that the two stripped bolts are on the
same side, and with the one remaining bolt tight, if I lift the frame, I
can see movement between the frame and the cross-brace.
On the one hand, it only allows positive camber change.
On the other, it probably effects toe in turns.
I was thinking of making an alternate cross brace using a piece of track
bar with heims joints on either end and a sort of horn thingie on either
side, but that "project" never took off. Yet.
Like I said, I'll play with it tonite. I'm quite anxious to get it all
together so I can fire that puppy up!.
