Upper A-arm studs...
After taking the front end apart, I got to the upper A arms. There are two studs per side. They appear to be pressed into the frame. 3 of the 4 are solid. But the front bolt on the drivers side has some play in it. It doesn't spin in the hole. I was able to take the nut off without it spinning. But, since some of the shims had came out of place, there wasn't alot of tension on it. So, should I worry about this? Or will it tighten up when I reinstall everything? It is not wollered(sp?)out, just has a lil wiggle to it.
Lastly, and excuse my ignorance for not knowing exactly what to call this, but the big nuts that cap the end of each upper and lower A arm pins? The threads on the inside that actually screw onto the bar/pin are fine. But the outter threads that screw into the actual A arm themselves seem shallow. They almost seem gaulded, but all eight of them are the same way. I cleaned the threads best I could before unscrewing them. Is this how they look? Or, are mine screwed? Sorry for the pun, but its late. Thanks guys Kevin |
