I would have thought they would be wider. In any case, thanks for the visual. Let us know the results.

sorry for everyone that was waiting over the weekend. i had a pretty busy weekend between helping friends out with their cars and buying a new beater car that i didnt have a chance to get it done. i had plans to do it yesterday but there was stuff going on in the garage so i was unable to. i plan on getting it done sometime this week.
