Aloha All,
Well as many of you know, I took a stab at rebuilding my front suspension a
couple of months ago. Complete new hardware, spax shocks, springs, poly
bushings, etc... I was very proud of myself if I do say so.
I got home from work today and decided to take a look as see how things look.
I've only put on about 250 miles since complete. Almost all of the poly
bushings in the upper and lower arms are ripped at the flange. I thought I
put everything in correctly, torqued to the right specs so I'm really not sure
what happened. I'm assuming that I am going to have to go in a replace them
all again and fortunately, it's now a very quick process (after doing it so
many times during the rebuild - I don't like to do things right the first time
I guess.)
At any rate, has anyone experienced this before? Any ideas on what happened
so I don't make the same mistake again.
As always, I thank you for your response in advance.
My best,
Mark Bullard
