Been rebuilding my rear subframe today and once fitted and torqued up the radius arm I've fitted is stiff and needs real effort to move it, which as far as I know isn't right. Here's what I know;
- New Minispares subframe, nice everything went together nice and easy.
- Refurbed arms with new pins etc. Refurb kit was Minispares
- Refurb done by an experienced shop, nobody else seems to have had issues.
- Off the car the pin slides in an out easily.
- I've torqued them up to 45lb/ft. Even at less, once they bolt's tight, the arms are stiff.
Any ideas what I may have done wrong (it's bound to be me!).
