Hey thanks for the compliment Harold!!

I tightened them up again after the pics, it seems one side of the strap likes to get real tight and the other stays a bit loose. Probably have to do it again, they are hard little buggers to keep tight and fasten while trying to hold the suspension just right before full droop. Even now it appears they are not tight just because the wire is pretty beefy but they are.

I appreciate you checking out the pics and pointing things out, it helps me notice things sometimes I might have overlooked! Just now sitting here I had a brain fart, I have a small RC Jack I could use to get the suspension at just the right spot before I fasten the limiter holder on the shock tower......DOH.....
