I swapped out the suspension in my Vmax-4. With the help of the vmax4 website, I installed an 01 SRX suspension. After the install I noticed that the new mount locations for the front shafts were not spot on (parallel to each other). the left side is about 1/8" forward of the right side. Since the bolt is a 10mm, I really don't have the room to just drill another hole. Do you guys think I will have major problems running it as is? Any sugesstions on a solution?

Problem ??? yes..skid will not be lined up to drive shaft properly... You could always rivet a plate over the hole and drill again...won't look the best, but it would work.

Well I would want it corrected....I would venture to say it is going to atleast have some binding to it and not travel correctly.. It may wear out bushings.. twist arms etc. Guess you could always try it and see what happens..

When i reinforced my tunnel from doing a skid swap I took 2 1/8" plates one on inner and 1 on outer to reinforced tunnel after I failed to do so the first time. I had a elongated bolt hole and had front arm bolt work loose. Take the time and reinforce and redrill. I would do it with steel.
