i wondered that same thing when i read the bulletin and i thought about all those people driving around with it done the old way....musta not been that important i guess.

got the chassis down to Salado and when i pulled it in i don't think anyone really knew what was going on....but when i parked it....it was like buzzards on dead meat...

lots of questions, people surprised a youngin owned it, and lots of pics and pointing......i guess the number one question was.....what are those cut out holes in the frame for....well...if i knew i would tell you, but i am guessing at some point someone decided they wanted dual exhaust and butchered the frame. i am considering repairing this now and then using a hole saw after the repair to cut the proper holes, but i haven't decided as really noone will see it when i am done anyways.

i even got a honk and thumbs up from one guy on the way down there.....speaking of....it was VERY windy trying to trailer that thing.

p.s. Michael, i loosened the bolts when i got home.
