Default i think im finally done!

well the day started off with me just trying to tuck up the y pipe a little more, and i started with this:

and that was with squashed hands, had i relaxed i probly would be touching with 4 fingers. after some unbolting and reangling and such, i got this:

lesson, when putting on the mac y pipe, or any y pipe, put each piece on individually, but do not tq down, just finger tight and when everything is up there, then tq it. now i know, and knowing is half the battle, GI JOE~!

thanks for all those who helped me.
