So, I am rebuilding/cleaning up my front suspension. I tore it all down, sandblasted and powder coated the front a arms only to realize as I was untapping that the front torsion bar cover cap that sits in the a arm is missing on one side (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) Is it just a standard freeze plug that goes in the a arm or is it a special cap? Does anyone know the size of the cap?

Only photos I have are on my phone and are too big to be able to post. It is located in the front of the torsion tube on the a arm, it is the end of the tube that the 2 bolt bushing shackle holds in place. I will try to get a picture when I get in front of my computer.

I will try to get a picture when I get in front of my computer. email your pictures to yourself using your phone and should ask what size you want to send it. Select smaller size and then save those pictures from your email to your phone. Now those pictures will be smaller size and you can attach several pics on a single post. |
