    Where would the rubbing come from on the cradle bolts? I suppose I can check the bolts this weekend, but I'd rather get a heads up before hand.

    Thanks

    If the bolts are loose, the whole cradle could be moving a little, and anything attached to it (control arms, steering, sway, engine, tranny, etc).

    Shiza - I'll have to check it out this weekend when Jacob (URLosn) shows me how to do the LIM gasket...

    I'll go easy on 'er until then.
