I think I am going to do something like what "Merlin 91/97" did in the picture below to solve my problem.... I already drilled the brackets that came with my Angel eyes just like Merlin 91/97 did. Btw if you read this "thanks for posting those pictures of your install :D

Wouldn't it be easier to have bent the tabs on the frame ot accomodate the angels instead of drilling the angel bracket?

Agreed..Merlins setup looks like it will work for the adjuster. Unless you are near a junkyard and can get a couple

McGrath, that is exactly happened to mind and I did the exact same thing you did

BillBoost37 06-29-2005 09:13 AM

You guys are way too hard on those things. :P

Do you think the metal was just old? I can't see it being stressed and fatigued in that application.

nope the adjuster screw is really shitty and will break

Yeah the metal had seen better days it just snaped when I tried to unscrew it, O-well 2 bucks for some bolts and nuts no biggy just 1 more trip to walmart and 1 more day till the fogs go in. :D :x
