bryan01 Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 so i'm putting in new shocks and springs and i sheared off one of the bolts on the outer rear side of the rear driver control arm. i tried to disconnect the suspension from the side closer to the hub (against the instructions in the how to i found), and it sheared off. i was able to remove the syspension by disconneting the control arm on the diff side (sometimes it's good to read the directions first). what i sheared looks like a stud that goes thru that part of the arm into the link between the arm and the hub, and it just broke. anyone out there who upgraded got a spare they can send me for some $$? here's a pic of an aftermarket control arm from modern motorsports. http://www.modern-motorsports.com/catalog/mm_gallery.php?album=2005+Modern+Motorsports+Prototype+Control+Arms+Proven%2F&pic=IMG_3374.jpg i sheared off the bolt just to the left of the guy's wrench coming out of the end of the control arm toward the camera any ideas?

bryan01 Posted July 5, 2007 Author Share Posted July 5, 2007 actually i should ask is that stud part of the control arm or part of the link that connets the control arm to the hub? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
