I did it! Re-assembled everything last night and drove it around for most of the day and it is holding up. (Knock on wood!) I feel much better having that hose clamp versus the quick connect the factory used. I wonder why they did that any ways? Oh well, it's on and now it's at EF1 Motorsports in Signal Hill getting the new KYB shocks I bought from Tire Rack. Thanks again!

You can imagine how easy it is to hook that connection on the assembly line ... that's why they use it, I believe. Sure makes it difficult for the rest of us.
