Phil,

As Buxman66 said all of the holes are there. The rear hole for the frame bracket that is occupied by a rivet that holds the bottom of the front crossmember is behind the pitman arm in my picture.

My bars, since I live in the rust belt of the US, were rather scaley. I used the best of the 2. If it were smooth or new I would have had it powder coated but I painted this one. I wire brushed it clean and then sanded it some. I used emery in the area that the bushings will ride to get to shiney metal. Then I wiped it down a couple times with enamal reducer to clean off all oil and grease residue. I primed it with Rust-O-Leum Rusty Metal Primer and topped it with Rust-O-Leum gloss black.

It come out pretty nice. I have had good results with this paint in the past on chassis parts so I'm confident that it will last a long time.

Tom
