No, and I can't tipe or spel either. I meant "Don't lose the top hat spacer." On a 70 and 71 they are on the outside and often got lost when they fall out. Go to http://tinyurl.com/j8akspl to see one.

Also make sure that your swing arm isn't bent, as is common.
Ask the Indians what happens when you don't control immigration.
