mj Mike Posted June 8, 2011 Author Share Posted June 8, 2011 thanks for the good feed back & great suggestion on the motor mounts !!! i still have front end noise! I checked the track bar & noticed play in the axle side. the bolt is tight but the track bar still has play. I removed the track bar & noticed the stock bolt (3/8) is way to small for the hole in the axle! :doh: It fits the sleeve in the rubber bushing on the TNT track bar. Is hardened so i can't drill it out. So i burned out the rubber bushing! I have A spar track bar with a poly bushing . i used the poly bushing with a 7/16 bolt & it still is not a tight fit in the hole on the axle side. looks like i am gona drill it up to 1/2 (3/8) (7/16) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comanche County Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 I have recently seen the light of anti-seize, if it has threads, it gets it, anything metal on metal gets it, I put it on everything and anything unless it requires lock-tight or grease. Just a suggestion, but being a dezert manche you don't have to worry about rust that much. May help with the metal on metal wear though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
