JDM-TOY Posted August 10, 2018 Posted August 10, 2018 Hey Guys Just had a look in this section but I couldn't find anything with people having issues with fitting their spindle pins in. So I have had the rear control arms painted, struts powder coated and the pins brass enamel coted. We tried to fiddle around and slide the pins in a little but they wouldn't go in both the struts or the control arms. Could the coating be the issue or ar they generally difficult to get in. Just worried they wont go in at all on Monday and then we would need to sandblast the pins to see if they fit. Anyone have a issue with theirs Cheers Youhan Quote
GregTas Posted August 10, 2018 Posted August 10, 2018 They are a very snug fit and need to be clean to slide in. A tap with a soft face hammer should get them in. i suspect yours are now oversize. JDM-TOY 1 Quote

JDM-TOY Posted August 18, 2018 Author Posted August 18, 2018 Thanks Lachlan @Lurch I filed off the enamel coating and they slid right in. Dont know why I got them coated as you cant even see them. Should have just done the nuts. Cheers Youhan C.A.R. 1 Quote
