DSpec Front struts not staying tight
Thursday, March 27, 2008 7:46 PM
Ive got a question for all you Dspec guys out there, in the manual for install it says NOT to use air tools for the nut bolting to the shaft and the mount or it may damage it... but i cant seem to get them tight enough so when i go over cracks it sounds like its loose, i tighten them up and they'll last maybe 300k until they gotta be tightened again.. How did you go about doing this so they stay tight?

Also what kind of Strut mounts you use? Mine are completly gone now and i dont think the GM plastic bearings are strong enough.

Thanks

Also might want to put some locktight on that thing. Don't go crazy with that too.

I've always used air tools on that project just dont let the rod spin to much go easy on it!
