As the upper link goes in I am supposed to tighten ultimately until there is around .003 in end play. With the rubbers on I assume it has to be a feel fitting? However, it took all my persuasion to even get the endcaps, hardened washers and link between the arms on the top. There is no way to have any endplay. What to do? The lower swivel should have a similar endplay but the tightness seems more to do with the tightness of the lower arms to the bottom plate? What to do?<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>When tightening all of the castellated nuts at the swivel pins and the lower arms to chassis pins how tight are the nuts to be tightened. I know on the lower arms, the bushes are to be equally compressed, which is kind of hard to achieve, but how tight is tight enough?<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Also, the swivels spun around with great ease before tightening and inserting swivels between arms. However, the installed unit seems to bind when rotating the around the swivel pins now. There is nothing that should be binding this rotation other than perhaps the rubber boots covering the inside of the links as it rotates through a rough exterior wall of the swivel pin itself. Am I doing something wrong? <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>TIA,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Clayton<o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
