Man, they have trouble with those control arms, don't they? What's my Dak in
the shop for right now? You guessed it, lower control arm on the passenger
side.
I thought these new 2K+ 4x4 front ends were supposed to be tougher - I've
had to:
- have the bushings replaced
- have the torsion bar readjusted
- and now, new lower control arm
That, and the fact that the bed shifted and has to be adjusted, tells me
that the robots were asleep at the factory that day ;-). I'm learning to
love my warranty a lot right now... I just didn't expect to after 11,000
miles of highway driving :-(.
