Interesting . I have had none of the troubles u have had. I run an engine plate w/ mine. No strutrods are nice, I couldn`t run my combination at all if they were in the chassis. I talked to the guys at mag. force a couple of times, they were very friendly and helpful to me. They were too high on the diff. front coil springs I had to buy tho. MY complete front end was bought new / used, in very tight shape w/ nothing broke or worn. Went together very well. Like I stated before, I did build a pair of strut rods for the lower a arms, to reinforce the back bolt that is rumored to break. I may build a hair beefier pair one of these days tho. I think they have made that back lower A arm bolt heavier on the later ones.--jfyi
