1ton lca question!

what wears on the one ton lca? is it the nut or the shaft? or are they designed to not wear, and never get replaced?

Re: 1ton lca question!

Both pcs wear, it just depends on how much wear as to replacement parts used. I have gotten lucky enough to replace bushings only & tighten up an old truck for a while. If you have lots of slop in the arms, you would be best to change shafts & bushings tho.... L

Maybe if they were made of kryptonite? This is GM truck parts we are taking about. It's going to wear out sooner or later...
