Pedders offset camber/caster strut mount - sheared bolt
Just an FYI to those of you using pedders top mounts.
I had one of the 3 nuts back off to the point that there was enough play to create a feint clunk over a year ago, so I've been re-torqing the nuts to 17 ft/lb on oil changes just for piece of mind. 2nd oil change retourqing - and one of the bolts sheared. I love them otherwise, so I ordered another but figured I would post up to see if others have heard of this? |

Are you using the oem nuts? Unfortunate to hear, but you may have just gotten a bad batch.
I’m on my 2nd set and all is well. |

Yup, OEM nuts. Just ordered 6 new OEM nuts as well to use when the top hat arrives. |

Little dab of Loctite blue will fix that right up.
