Just crawled out from under mine, have to do projects early in the morning before the fires of hell are lit!

MAY have solved my popping/klunking noise. When I did my chf I didn't have any blue loctite and I had broken my torque wrench weeks before on another project. When I checked the Z bolts on the lower rear links the right one was snug but not tight. I had purchased a new torque wrench and a bottle of loctite so I removed, loctited, and torqued the Z bolts properly this time, checked the front while I was at it. My fault for not doing it right the first time, and I know better!!! Will have to take a test drive to see if that was the actual problem, hoping it was!

I was reading another post about the front window locks being kinda worthless, and they are! The other member had drilled holes and put pins in his windows, he has an ACE and the windows may be a little different. I didn't see a good place to drill so I bought these window locks at Lowes, about $2. There is a forward facing lip on the fixed window just wide enough for the locks to grip, easy to install and remove and they seem very secure.
