I'm retiring

I will continue to sell out my existing stock (some stuff is running low and some stuff I have a fair amount on hand yet).

As I run out of things they will be discontinued and marked out of stock.

So my advice is buy it now because it may not be available in the future.

Thank you,

It was a wonderful 30 year journey!

Paddle nut plates for adjustable front upper ball joints on the 84-87 Fiero

 

Using these paddle nut plates makes installing adjustable upper ball joints easy on the 1984-1987 Pontiac Fiero.  Makes an alignment very easy because you only need to use one wrench on the top.

With these installed the threads stick up this much. Some worried this might be too much and hit the steering knuckle. They do not and there is plently of clearance.	I include some 10 mm flat washers. Putting one under each bolt head reduces the length of the threaded section of the bolts.
I tried 2 different bolt lengths. 25 mm and 30 mm.  I decided that the 25 mm bolts do not go thru the nuts enough.	The 30 mm bolts stick out a bit past the ends of the nuts so I include some flat washers. Even without the flat washers the longer 30 mm bolts will never hit the steering knuckles.

One kit does both front upper ball joints:

 Includes zinc plated 10.9 grade hex flange bolts.
