Rep Power: 255

Hey all. I am having a problem that I have never seen before. I have Tein flex on my car and drive it in the winter. Since i drive it fiarly low in the summer i raise it up 2 inches in the winter. The other day i noticed my drivers side was way higher than my passenger side and the back. I took the wheel off to adjust it and this is wut i saw. (see pic)



I washed the threads and dried them hoping that maybe they jsut got some oil on them or something. Hopefully it wont happen again. Scary tho eh.

You just have to use gorilla-strength to snug the adjuster rings together and it shouldn't happen again.

thanks. I did that this time and hopefully it wont happen again. I do know that before the threads seemed like they turned almost too easy so after i washed and dried them there was nothing to help turn easier and they definantly turned stiffer. And i got that lock ring as tight as i could. Sometimes i wish spanner wrenches were a bit longer for more torque but oh well. And i couldnt even find a pipe to fit over the end. Stupid cheap wrenches.
