Thumbs up Updated Pictures of CSX4206

Photographs depict SW240's, updated quick jack hardware to include anodized split nuts, and 8 year old BB's.

Nice pics, Evan.
If you don't mind, could you add a pic of a closeup of a BB sidewall?
They must have changed the compound, I tell ya.

Where did you source the quick jack hardware and can you provide more details (i.e. dimensions, type, etc.)? Also, did you simply Dremel a groove in the end of what started out as bar stock, or are those hardened bolts that have had the heads shaved? They look nice.

I like the carpet liner in the trunk. Great idea for keeping it from getting scratched.

Thanks guys. Car was up at HRE for a spa service. Billy Andrews added the details. I will get the info to answer the questions on the split nuts. I know he had the hardware anodized the correct color.

I will post more pics of my BB's but they look as they appear in the pics.

As to my hood rivets that's classified info. Lol.

Very nice. Did you make your own license plate bracket, I ask because most push plate out to far so light is covered up or bottom of plate is out to far so bolts on license plate frame don't hit body. Yours looks perfect. I could make my own but light would be half covered, what am I missing?

Very nice Evan. Looks great!
Pretty amazed at how good those BB's still look too.
Am I reading your license plate correctly? Did your tags expire in '06??

Maricopa,
If that's the case, than RodKnock's BBs should look 'hot off the molds'.

License plate bracket was always like that. Thanks for the nice words though.

Registration is current. So is inspection. Don't know why I never got updated stickers for the plate.

Maybe you are living in a time warp and still back in '06 with the new Billboards!
