Everything will feel stiffer and more responsive when it's all back together with new parts.

I'm surprised they needed modifications. Where did you get them? G;ad it's all back together and you're happy.

I am glad I am not the only one the passenger side problem. I reused the long bolt, but with the new mounts from Paragon, the bolt is too long and is hitting the fuel pump. I guess I am going to have to cut a little off the end.
