    Thank-you too, Beagle. I guess I'll have to measure where this is supposed to fit in and reason out how far the ram needs for travel in order to seat the GC.

    Is This Useful?

    As you can see, I'm not the most prolific of posters and I haven't been here in some time. This is all due to a few serious health and intractable pain issues. So, you get...
