Re: [Healeys] inner A arm bushing nuts

[Bob Haskell <rchaskell@earthlink.net>]

As the large washer and the pin can't rotate, I wonder what would cause 
the nyloc nuts to loosen.  The rubber bushings got shorter? Might be 
interesting to put witness marks on the nuts and the chassis to see if 
the nuts are rotating.
