Thanks You will need to modify the mounts. But aside from that, they fit quite nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocket Posted October 9, 2007 Share #4 Posted October 9, 2007 when you mean modify do u mean cut bend weld etc, or what kinda work am i looking at getting into? I had cut off the outward portion from the vertical tabs, used longer bolts with lock nuts. The upper part of the mounts are different, from the early ones & you may come up with a different method. But this was my quick & dirty solution to the mounting differences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
