so on my way to the AX saturday i noticed a "clunk" sound from the frontend, like i had lost something.
i had this happen before, bolt came lose on the swaybar droplink, so i thought that was it ... when i get to the AX site and change tires, i see the droplink hanging all weird so i take a closer look and the lower hime joint has broken. the thread just snapped off the joint. i then continue to change the tire on the other side and it's exactly the same! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif) both hime joints broke in the exact same location. that seems too odd to be coincidence. i must have hit something *really* hard for that to happen, but i can't remember running over any bad potholes etc. anyone else had problems before?

Those U-Tabs look to be about 1/2" too far inward from "both" of my cars with stock tabs.
To try to explain... my outer edge is almost directly over the a-support that comes into view on those pics and is welded to the arm. (does that make sense? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif) ) Both my cars have the factory mount placed "outward" by what appears to be 1/2". NOW... they're "both" 911 A-arms on the GT and the RS so... I don't know if that makes any difference. I'd go take some pics but I don't want to piss off the Sir with my clearly superior photographic skills (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/w00t.gif) (actually, I'm too fuching lazy... I will if you need or request "Oh Sir One") |
