Hey guys,
Picked up a new K-Frame for the VK yesterday - the old one is bent where the radius rod attaches, been that way ever since I hit a gutter (totally destroyed almost every component of the LH suspension too, only springs and shocks survived).
Now I can mount it in a day in the backyard I've no doubt - but only have a reasonably small trolley jack.
Given it's gonna need to take most of the weight of the engine, is the replacement do-able with just the jack and 2x axle stands?
Cheers,
- Chris.
(for the record, here's the result of the gutter incident... note that the radius rod was ripped clean out of the control arm!)
