So I was putting on new side pieces on the roll cage and found that it is nearly 1/2" to long. Anyone think I have a bent front?Doc2.jpg

Here are a couple more of the shock area. Left side.jpg

The last one ⬆ does look like its bent. I had to replace the front part of the roll cage because of a tree.

The bottom one is just an oblique view for maybe a better angle.⬇

Sorry @Minnesota RC , I don't have enough hands to measure and take a pic. I placed a piece of flat steel behind the shock tower and measured from it to the center of the hole with my calipers. I got 119mm or 4.685 inches.
 
The Chassis was a little bent. Took the front off and applied a little downward force to shape it and the front roll cage slide into place(y). I reckon I'd be needing a new one by the end of the season because the trees like to jump out when they weren't there before.
