the rears don't usually have a problem because the bushings changed there (the rear carrier) don't face the same load as the front strut rods.

I like your engine undercover.
Gives me ideas since mine has begun cracking due to age and impacts with roadway debris.

Nice, I've been wanting a 3/8" torque wrench. Looking at the torque specs for the stuff I need it for, the range is crazy...it would be difficult not to get a bolt/nut torqued from 15-30#'s.

My 1/4" is a CDI, no complaints on it.
