Advice for those with SPL Upper Control Arms
 
After corner balance and alignment of my car this past weekend I had four of the Allen head screws missing from my arms. The ones that you tighten down to lock the adjusters in place. I know I had them tight and they have been on my car since October and being that my car has been out of commission until the last two weeks I could only pull my car around my property. Well I must of pushed and pulled it several dozen times around the yard and those screw had backed out. All of them.

So it's your best bet to put some blue lock tite on them and gets some spares. Especially being there location has gravity working against us.

These came today, might as well do it to these also to be safe.

Has this happened to anyone else?
I've been driving on my arms since last week and i haven't the time to check.

Mine were tightened pretty well, without locktite, and I haven't lost any after a couple weekends at the track. Ihave have been keeping an eye on them and will do this next time I adjust the alignment
