1. how many 0.090" thrust races are needed? seems to me you need 4 per A-arm. I have 4 total.
2. how do you seal the A-arms against dirt/water ingress? |

If this is for your suspension, you need two per side and then you put the washer and O-ring on and seal it with silicone. Did you read the directions? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif)

There are instructions? I purchased some remaining components from someone who used to make them and sell them on the board but I never got any instructions.

QUOTE If this is for your suspension, you need two per side and then you put the washer and O-ring on and seal it with silicone. Did you read the directions? the instructions say put on a washer, then a thrust bearing, then another washer (without saying whether this is the front or rear of the A-arm). ok, fine. but I have 4 thrust bearings and 4 thrust washers. So I have 2 too many bearings, or 4 too few washers. also, no orings. |

I sent you a PM.
I have a PDF file with the instructions on how to put them in. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
