    Flipped Balljoints?

    Actually, it wont. The reataining clip will be on the bottom instead of the top.The way it is now, theres more wieght on the clip than the way i would do it. so technically, the balljoint would push right back trhough. i am still doing some reasearch tho.

    Tv Install Write Up

    on the passenger side i tried that, to cut only enough to make the tv fit. ONce cut, it was so flimsy it wasnt worth keeping, so i junked it. i could have made a longer one and welded it lower, but i didnt have the mats at the time. but, no, i dont think there would be a difference.
