I should've put the prettier bolt on this side.
I might fix it.

Sheesh, I hope you stopped and let them know the bezels are upside down.
Amazon product ASIN B0837TSG7P
This is probably the cheapest version. eBay has a couple of vendors too.
If you search Roll bar hammock you’ll find several variations.

Finally got the drivers side defroster vent back into a mostly round form and installed new replacement heater ducts from the heater to those vents. Since I had to take the gauge cluster out to get enough access to the drivers windshield metal defrost vent to be able to fix it I decided I’m going to try taking the odometer apart since my speedometer works fine (I think) but only the 10ths of a mile odometer wheel changes. I could buy an aftermarket but I’m going to try fixing mine first.

Added a 4Plus U-bolt flip kit to the front and rear. If anyone sees a problem, particularly with regard to the routing of brake lines, please let me know so that I can fix. Also, please let me know if I need to cut off the excess U-bolts that are sticking up toward the stops.
Thank you.
Thank you.

10 digits to freedom
Jack up the axle and see if the bump stop hits before the u-bolts, if the u-bolts hit the frame before the bump stop, cut
Otherwise I'd cut for tidiness.Jim S.

I would not cut them flush. When time to reinstall them it helps to have enough thread to compress the springs. I think we left an inch on ours.
