Thumbs up Just straightened the bed...

For those with misaligned beds, I highly recommend doing it. It's mucho easy to do. I'm a dumbass and managed to do it in less than 10 minutes. The hardest part was having to go to 3 different stores to find a T50 hex driver.

Loosen the six bolts. Align the bed. Tighten. Viola.

See ya'

Dan

Picked up a pack of assorted sizes at K-Mart (Benchtop Pro). It's housed in a 1/4" drive socket. I just used a regular ratchet. The bolts are not very tight at all. You don't need to loosen them all that much, and you wont have to get underneath at all to hold the head. Just loosen, align, tighten.

Good luck.

Car shop.

Shuck's/Autozone/Napa typically have the larger Torx bits. Tool shops (Sears/Home Depot/hardware store typically don't)
