I still think that the top of the shock is a bit too far back. Tweeking that lower mount a bit would really help.

35 bucks. Saw an original on E Bay two years ago that was junk. Went for 85 bucks.
Looks great. I too like the teardrop tail lights but like the Ford ones just a bit more. I pretty much flipped a coin
