My trailing arm nuts keep coming loose. Guess I just need to replace them new ones or with nylon lock nuts. Anybody know the thread size off hand? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Chuck isnt an engineer.
The bearings used in the kits are WAY overkill for the loads we can generate. Throw all the engineers you want at it. We have real world sucess stories with street cars and race cars. The bearing kits have been around since 1998. If there was a HUGE scary problem with failures.. we would have heard about it 100's of times by now. I even pulled apart one of the first kits to inspect it... I found NO wear on the bearings or the "race". I cleaned them up and set them side by side with a new bearing.. I couldnt tell the difference. B |
