Re: [T3] keith, don't look...


This is indeed a problem with the solid rockers.  Nobody seems to be aware
or concerned about it but when I called berg they said that it "Just needed
to be reshimmed"  I really dont know how much of a problem this is but Im
here again expecting 100K trouble free miles and....  Im losing my warm and
fuzzy!
