Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a heavy air impact gun to drive the C-frame screw?
While the C-frame is heavily forged, continuous use of a high-torque impact wrench can rapidly wear out the forcing screw threads. Hand tools or low-power impacts are recommended.
Does this kit include adapters for Honda or Ford specific ball joints?
It includes standard universal adapters that fit most vehicles. Specific manufacturer specialty adapters are typically sold separately to expand the kit.
