Already done. I have an appointment at Baertrax of Dallas next week. If they are as good as their reputation they will have another customer for life... or until I go broke... whichever comes first.

Not sure who you talked to first, but Screamin Lizzard Customs does good work. http://www.screaminlizard.com/Scripts/default.asp

I read your profile and it states your jeep has the 3.5" RE lift. I believe that kit came with the cam bolts.

Yeah... when I bought the Jeep the lift was already installed and honestly at the time I didn't know a cam bolt from a can of beans. But we live and if we are lucky... we learn.

Yeah, thick grade 8 washers with some heavy duty TIG welding. Supposed to be stronger than the original brackets.
