Almost done. Gotta tub for the driveshaft and do some wire looming.

Is it only me but doesn't anyone else see a problem here? I know this guy just got done dropping $10k on a bad bag job the first time and now you are hanging the bags off the side of the lower link bars?
I know from experience that within 6 month those bushing are going to be shot from the up and down movement. Since you have already done the bag mounts there notch the side of the frame and pull those more on top of the bars so he doesn't go through bushings.
Like I said I know from experience and if you haven't seen the problem I am hoping I am enlightening you before there is one.

Its what the owner wanted, reuse what i can and make it safe. Theyre not twisting the bar. Ive had setups that torqued the bushings visibly but these dont seem to be doing that.
