Ridetech posilinks snapped
Hey guys I have some ridetech coilovers level 2 on my car right now and the other day the Front Driverside Posilink that connects from the strut to sway bar (pfadt ZL-Spec sway bar) just literal snapped. It broke off right were the threads that connect the little bar. Wish I had a picture to show what I mean but in the mean time. Can I be driving around with one link broken?
I will get pictures but this happened just when I was leaving for a trip :( Btw at first I heard a pop noise that was made when I was reversing into a parking spot but I didn't see anything wrong so I thought nothing of it. Then yesterday when I heard the sound of it snapping off completely I was going maybe 10mph in a straight line in my neighborhood. So I have no idea why the hell it would break off like that! I feel pretty lucky at least it wasn't on a highway when it snapped off!

Pull the remainder off and leave the other side connected until you can get a replacement. You'll be fine to drive like that, just don't try to corner aggressively. RideTech will take care of you. Send me a PM or give me a call and I'll be happy to help you out.

Hey 954,
I was going through the posts and saw this one. I didn't know if you had a chance to talk to one of us about the failure or had gotten a replacement yet. If not, call me directly. 812-481-4738. We take pride in our customer service so I'd really like to get you fixed. |

Wanted to give a update to this thread.
It turned out to be my fault when I installed them and ridetech was a tremendous help. We talked about the situation and we came to the conclusion on how they could have broken. So I resolved the issue when ridetech sent me another set and everything has been working perfectly fine since then. Thank you so much kyle for helping me! |

I'll try to get some good pictures of the proper orientation up in a bit. I've got to get the car in the air and snap some pics.
