[TR] Trailing arm studs

[Bob Danielson]

Kevin,
Just jam two nuts together real tight and then use them to screw the stud
back into the trailing arm.

Having stripped a thread.....I go by feel. If you replace the threads with
Keen-Serts or Heli-Coils, you can crank them down as much as you want.

Thanks, Randall and Bob! Thankfully, the threads all look pretty good....
only one buggered up stud

from the DPO. I still wonder how they put these in at the factory. No marks
on the "meat" partB 

of the stud. They must use non-toothed Vice grips, or am I using the wrong
tool to put them in?




Best, Kevin
