Okay, here's a pic, see what you can do. I'll try to get more once I actually get the car on Monday.
John, because I've never seen the underside of this car, please excuse my ignorance, but are the tensioner rods the front caster adjustment things you were talking about? Aaron, UT registration is a motherfornicating pain. MN is so easy, you don't even need the car there, all you need is the title signed over and a drivers license. Besides, this new car won't pass emissions or safety at the moment (due to a push-button ignition, which is gonna change), so in the interest of racing, I figured an MN reg is the way to be.

UT does emissions on everything 67ish and newer - and it's not a floating date, just fixed at 1960-whatever. And, while I'm not a licensed safety inspector or anything, I haven't seen anything in the document that would prevent you from having a push-button ignition, but I haven't looked specifically for it either... http://publicsafety.utah.gov/safetyinspections/docs/X2009-2010%20SI%20PLT%20ManuaL.pdf No argument on it being a PITA though.

Okay, so mine doesn't have the second set of threads, just the ones on the end. Do I need that type, or am I good with these?
Here's some pics.
