Something's not right. What's your body number and I'll see what I can find for you? Is it caged properly?

Be lazy (like me) and buy welded-clevis chambers!

At least with the welded clevis chambers, they're either right or wrong. I agree though that something doesn't sound right.

Our '03 and '07 BB's take an MGM 3230951. I think it's a BB number 00041403.
