Well, finally got back to Rustfalia tonight to see if I could finish the drivers side upper control arm. I have installed another unit from a list member (thank you), and it it is in place, but does not behave like the passenger side. when I tighten it down it does not "fall down smoothly upon lifting and letting go" like the other side. it makes a Clunking noise when loosened. The Bentley is not real specific about how to adjust this, and I am really getting tired of looking at this thing! I have included a link to Photobucket showing how it looks now..any advice is appreciated. thanks http://s101.photobucket.com/albums/m48/Earthshelterman/?action=view¤t=RearCAsmall.jpg http://s101.photobucket.com/albums/m48/Earthshelterman/?action=view¤t=FrontCAsmall.jpg -- 1985 Full Westy "Rustfalia" 1982 Full Westy "dead engine" 1991 GL 1972 Honda Z600 2 cyl |
