Terry H Mar 30th, 03, 8:54 PM I installed new bushings in my 66 control arms. Now when I jack up one side the other side gives a very loud POP. When driving down the road I can hear it sometimes pop...its driving me nuts! Anyone have any ideas? DG Mar 30th, 03, 8:59 PM Did ya wait to torque the bolts down after the car was resting on the springs? graemlins/sad.gif Sounds like it's binding, or something is not seated properly. :confused: Terry H Mar 30th, 03, 9:08 PM Yes I tightened the bolts after it was down on the springs. This popping is driving me bananas graemlins/angry.gif Maliboob Mar 30th, 03, 9:42 PM Are they seated properly flush in? not at an angle? Terry H Mar 30th, 03, 9:56 PM they are flush...do you guys think I need to spot weld them? TronDD Mar 30th, 03, 10:11 PM Your upper control arm nuts that bolt to the frame tight? Maybe the arm is slipping back and forth on the bolt. Tim. Terry H Mar 31st, 03, 8:00 AM I just had it lined up...it was popping before the lineup and is popping after. All the bolts are tight...this has really got me stumped. :confused: SSpete67 Apr 6th, 03, 11:59 AM Are they the stock bushings or after market one's? I know the Hotchkis one's I just installed come with a slip on Polygrahpite bushing that flits over the sleeve to prevent the upper control arm from moving around | ||
