Yes! That would be a big help, still may be doable as is, but you would have to take off the longatudes as I don't think you can slip the brace under it. I guess the trucks don't have it...

Can it be dun on your end???

I guess that's what I'm asking. During the construction of the assembly a horizontal could be added; but what other differences are there?

Good job...and do you still have all 10 digits?

Looks like you had a little rust hiding in there.

Good thing rust of that extreme hasn't quite made it to the west coast

You guys have no idea how lucky you are out there on the left side. This kind of rust is so common here, that if you do find something nice, it's as good as hitting the lottery.
