hp006 Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 I have changed the rear suspension subframe as i got feed up of trying to change the hubs over. One of the drop links is a little loose. I have tried tightening it up but the joint keeps spinning and wont let me tighten the nut. The metal bracket the is meant to lock into where the nut is is bent and so does not grip. Does any one have some suggestions as i dont seem to be able to undo it or tighten it??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Ian Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 If memory serves me, you have to lock the bolt up thats behind the rubber with a pair of molegrips so you can then tighten/loosen the bolt kinda hard to explain without being there lol hope it helps -Ian- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTRickeh Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Bend the clip back in? Have you noticed you can put an allen key in the end of the bolt? That helps, but if often rounds off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hp006 Posted February 26, 2011 Author Share Posted February 26, 2011 whoever had the frame before have managed to round the allen key part. The clip is now weak so when its bent back in place as soon as there is pressure it bends back. Where can i put the mole grips to stop it twisting?
