Haha I have to buy a new CB antenna. The same day I broke my driveshaft I broke the antenna on the way home. It must have hit a tree and since it doesn't have one of those springs underneath it I guess it just snapped clean off. I love my honcho...

whooooo my jeep is back on the wheels! once again i ran out of light and was too hungry to bother setting up the lights and all that crap. i still have to torque down the lugs and the control arm bushings, and align the front end but it's finally coming together! i'll take my camera over and take some pics, the things looks siiiiiiick now

no, that will mess with the pattern. when you take the bolts out, mark which one comes out of which hole and re-torque them to spec

I didn't.

Probably didn't put them back in the same spot either Shouldn't mess with the pattern AFAIK.

Anthony, SPOBI!

I didn't.

As Colin mentioned, it won't effect the pattern at all unless you re-install the ring gear wrong and then get runout (but then you'll have other issues). I guess you can reuse them, but ring gear bolts are only supposed to be torqued once in their life, so to me the $8 or 12 for a new set is worth it.
