That is not a PG13 image for sure!
I had an open end lugnuts even before and they didn't help with corrosion getting in there. This one will get a bit of some anti-seize (sp?) with hopes it would protect it. Or, as you said above, just take them off every once in a while and dont trust tire shop techs and their power tools |

my issue was the lugnuts got rounded off. dont use aluminum sockets and just replace the lugnuts when they look tired and dirty lol

You will need to get the calipers off, rear discs and possibly even pull the hubs out as IIRC there is no space to do it with hub in situ. Put some copper grease on every bolt as you do not want to strip caliper threads later on..

Replaced the Walbro 255 with a new one and that fixed the lean condition but now seeing 9.5 afrs. Hopefully just a boost leak but I used an extra hanger from a 2005 - 1760A031 instead of my factory 02-04 hanger MN161238. Anyone aware of any differences between the two? Looks like a replacement holder is universal across all models: https://stmtuned.com/products/fuel-p...-oem-evo-7-8-9

So did an autocross event today, went home and swapped to my DD set of wheels. I noticed one of my super pro lower control arm bushing is pretty much destroyed. I swapped a previous set of lower control arm super pro bushings about 6 months ago since they were cracked and bulging out. Pretty disappointed with the duroball since it only lasted at most 6 months(not sure when it failed), probably can handle DD duty but obviously it can’t handle autocross. Wonder if this aided in my last set of tires odd inner tire wear.
Anywho anyone have some recommended bushings for the front control arm rear bushing? https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.evo...a0bf85eff.jpeg |
Interesting failure. Maybe worth filling the gaps with urethane in it?

Powerflex has a pretty nice offset compliance bushings. Have a few customers with them who've had problem free exerpiences.

the whiteline offset bushing/caster kit worked well for me.

Odd failure. Like dallas pointed out maybe due to the holes in the bushing its not strong enough for autocross |
probably operated outside of its range. maybe shocks are too long?
