like i said or should of said i'm not calling you a liar it was some scratches - rub marks inside were the screws get mounted it's no big deal!!! and please don't think that i want it to be!!! i,m still very happy no worries, if i thought the ad was misleading the feedback would have said so , but i left very positive feedback, so please no worries the rub marks get covered once the shocks get mounted!!

GMC I just wanted to illustrate the fact that these items were new to the best of my knowledge.When you stated that the description was a little off I was trying to see how that could have been. I just wanted to re-assure you that these shocks were never fitted to a vehicle prior to you recieving them. Im concerned that there are scratches to be honest. I can only guess that they must have been from the factory.

Hello gmc572 I believe this is the bulkhead you are looking for. I got it 2 years ago on a lot I bought. Unfortunately I have plans to use it on a future built. If I happen to come across one or change my mind about the built I will let you know.
Keep posting progress of the built, I sound like a cool one.

I'll try to remember to take some tonight (i've been pretty bad about getting pics done lately) and I also have the "template" paper that came with it. I'll try to remember it at work tomorrow and scan it for you.

WELL i figured instead of sitting infront of computer i should be assembling what i have so far!! as i'm sure alot of you know parts from other manufactures don't usually work with others, but all i had to do was swap out the bottoms of the shocks to the assoc. pieces and well it works!! the trailing arms were also NIP, so i guess the hunt is on for a trailing arm rear tower now. I also aquired some some other NIP pieces . so thats it for now enough babbling on to pics

went and looked last night... def the same arms but no "andy's" logo or antying on the arms. Just the degress on the mounting blocks that attach the arms to the chassis... come to find out I actually have two different sets of them too! My chassis is pretty bare at this poin just the arms, mounts, Andy's battery box and a black 10t bulkhead.
