Dillon-did you delete the T-bar & what sways are you using with this set-up. I've been considering bumping up the rears to 500#. 750# seems really hard for the streets.

Yep, good comment. Need to use a factory type flat washer or a tie-down eye.

Ok, that'll work then. Easy enough to just add a washer...
