mcbrat Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 one side broke, and I've added rear coilovers, and the side with the torsion bar (clocked too) is making it a bit too high... the bolt that holds the arm in snapped off.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So no un-clocking it? Just do the opposite of putting it up a notch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm gonna check and see if I can get to it through the adjuster under the bed... actually, if I cut the adjuster off, that would do the trick .... hmmm....

j2coe Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 sometimes you can start your center hole with a small bit to drill it out. it won't get moved around like a big bit. don't go deep just enough to make a pit that a bigger bit can hold till its past the rough surface.

Works 9 times out of 10 for me.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcbrat Posted August 30, 2007 Author Share Posted August 30, 2007 aaaggghhh, bolt is drilled out, but it still won't budge.... I may end up leaving it as is, and just get a diff drop plate..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
