That would be awesome. Yup I know where that is folks like in Madison.

One thing to note on the strengthener plate...make you you order new bolts for that as well if you havent already those are torque to yield. Changed mine last year and found that out from this site as well.

Lol. I'm well aware of this. I have already been through 2 new sets. First time was when I did the transmission oil pan when changing the filter. The 2nd time was when I dropped the engine oil pan to fix the oil drain plug.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that when I order my 3rd set of 6 bolts, it will be the last set!

I too picked up on that from this forum.
