it basically extends the length of the threaded portion on the tie rod end?
femal thread that screws into the tie rod end, and then a threaded portion for the struts pitmann arm? seems way too simple....for 200 bucks.. |

i read that whole long PP thread... the short version seems to be that plus or minus a bit, it's not appropriate unless you have raised the spindles on the struts. the other issues in the thread: the bolt had evidently been loose, to some extent, for whatever reason, for a while. since the bolt can be replaced without affecting any alignment settings, i think it'd be prudent to simply develop and stick to a replacement schedule... say -- annually or each front pad replacement, or after hitting anything hard enough to bend a wheel - whichever came first... an AN or a metric 12,9 fastener might be an upgrade - but as was brought out in the thread - few of us have the luxury of buying hardware like that in small quantities from reliable sources - and the initial engineering on the part indicated the Grade 8 was appropriately strong (i too recall Carroll smith decrying both Grade 8 in suspension and any bolt in single shear...). field failures have evidently been rare, but i'm sure each is memorable... after reading that whole long thread i'm not as willing as JP to write off the product -- but then i don't need it, either... |
