Frustrated with CHE K-member brace and torque limiters.
I posted this is the general 2005-2007 section, but I thought I would post it here as well. Thanks guys
I purchased and installed the CHE K-member brace and torque limiters 3 weeks ago, and I'm begining to get frustrated with them. When I first installed them, they worked great. No more bucking when shifting, and the transmission seemed to have stopped torqueing over when I ran her hard. After two days, I noticed my baby had gone back to bucking when I shifted hard. I got back under the car and reajusted the bolts. It was fine for a few more days and then the problem resurfaced. Once again, I get back under the car, readjust, and it is solved. Two days ago, it starts it again. I get under my car this afternoon and adjust a third time, which solves it.
The question I have is: what am I doing wrong? From what I have read, this shouldn't be happening. I have no doubt it's something I am doing incorrectly, but I can't figure it out for the life of me. Any thoughts from those of you out there that have this mod?
This is what my limiters looked like before I adjusted them.
This is the top of the passanger side limiter
Top of the Driver's side limiter
Driver's side bushings
Passanger bushing
When I adjusted the limiters, I relieved a lot of the pressure on the bushing (It's hard to tell from the pics, but they looked like they were smashed too tight.). I love the mod, but I really don't want to have to be adjusting it every 2-3 days.
Thanks in advance for any help.
