Took the wheel pant off today so I could brace the other side of the air hose going to the air bag spring and work on an easier mounting system fer the wheel pant. I'm thinking of a sliding system that locks in place with a couple of fasteners. The front nose will be attached to a separate vertical pillar system which will allow fer flexibility during impacts.
Maybe I'll make a quick and dirty wheel cap/cover fer the wheel in the interim.
