Puttin' the suspension back under KMP230X......
 
I'm putting the suspension back on the FASB, I wasn't smart enough to take pics, so.......
Anybody have the torque specs handy?
Anybody(RON:D ) got any pics?
On the upper and lower control arms, there are aluminum bushings going through the hiem joints(I think they are hiem joints), one side is wider than the other, which side goes towards the front of the car?
Does it matter which side the bolt goes through(the gromet in the frame side or the small frame hole side)?
Any of this cr@p require safety wire?
Anybody know of an Atlanta area shop that I can take to when I'm done to make sure it is safe?


Yours in ignorance, SFM

Jim,

I can take some pics if you don't get the info you need soon.

From what I can see the bushings are the same size and the bolts go in from each side - bolt heads to the outside.

The aluminum bushings go on the "outside" of the bracket.

Excuse the dirt on my POS - that is what happens when you have a differential that blows it's oil out all over the rear end.:mad:

I hope this pic shows what you need.

I tried to post but my pic was too big - you can see it on my gallery.

SFCJ:

Toy Collector has a KMP and is near Atlanta. Also, Bruce Bunn of Jodeco Autobody and Bill Parham of Southern Auto have finsished a few KMPs and have a few more in their shops. They could check it over. b/t/w, what does FASB stand for?

Thanks, Pat.

Lew FASB is just a joke, I just ripped it off from FPSB(F ake P lastic S h!t B ox). The A is for Aluminum.
