[QUOTE="tonybolton, post: 521153, member: 3432"] [b]Re:[/b] As I've had this rig for a little over a year now it's built really really well but little things like these bolts ....I snapped a couple of them and I'm finding out why...... the ones that were used were a little bit too short and the actual heim joint is riding right where the threads meet the hard shank of the bolt.... right at the weakest spot. This will be the third bolt... I've been replacing them in pairs as I go. Luckily there has been no catastrophic damage each time one has broken mainly because the nuts have been Tack welded to the tabs So obviously I'll be replacing the other bolt on the other side when this one is fixed to prevent an update on this thread.
