UCA Questions
« on: December 08, 2012 - 05:50:29 PM »
When I pulled apart my suspension, I was surprised how tight the UCA arms are.   There is movement, but it is very tight and limited, squeeky too (rubber busshings).  Is this normal, or did some one screw something up along the way?????


Thanks,

Jason

Did you loosen the UCA bolts? If they're loose then the arm should pivot smoothly. If
the bolts are loose and the arm is difficult to move, then your bushing sleeves
are seized to the bolts, and the bushings need replacing.
If I cant fix it, it's broke
