I got the prototypes ready, but waiting on the caster washers from laser cutting, then will provide pictures in a new thread. Production has already begun on the radius arm bearings. Shouldn't be an issue getting you set up before the season.

Him and me both buddy. My Pfadt radius bushings are kicking the bucket as we thread. I have my spear Z28 arms in case there is no replacement.

I remember you asking about them, I'll post up in a new thread soon with some install pics now that I have the caster washers in hand.

Reading a lot of diff statements on here about bolts and torque after bushing install...

After I did install I torqued to 100lb which is what I found... then I read the bolts should be replaced and I read several diff torques... is this personal preference or what?

should bolts be replaced and what should they be torqued too?

Not sure there is a single bolt on this car that is not TTY and is recommended to be re-used.

I put a touch of loc-tite on almost every bolt I re-use. I have ordered new bolts for the brake calipers for the next time I remove them... They have already been on and off several times.
