Studs for Upper Control Arms
I was wondering if anyone knew if you could get longer studs for your upper control arms so you can adjust your chamber correctly while inches off of the ground. I think that I will run out of threads on the stud before I get the wheels where I want them to be. If anyone has a site or anything just let me know. Thanks

Re: Studs for Upper Control Arms
I already ordered the new factory sized bolts from LMC. I just might take them to my local machine shop and have him take care of them for me.

Re: Studs for Upper Control Arms
Any fastener dealer like Fastenal should be able to match up something fairly close. You can always use a longer grade 8 bolt. It doesn't necessariyl have to be a stud, it's just easier.

Re: Studs for Upper Control Arms
I went to fastenal and they didnt have anything at all. He was looking in the books and still couldnt find anything. Thought about just using a 1/2 grade 8 bolt but that would be a major PITA to get to with the motor in it
