Re: [DML] Trailing Arm Bolt Concerns

["at88mph" <at88mph@xxxx>]

Toby,


Could you also give us some details such as mileage and conditions these
cars were in? I've wondered for awhile now how mileage affects the
trailing arm bolts. What I mean by this is, would you be more likely to
have this problem on a DeLorean that gets used everyday and has high mileage
or would it be more of a problem on a DeLorean that has been sitting up for
quite some time. I have over 100,000 miles on my DeLorean and the trailing
arm bolts *look* fine. Now, common sense would say the one that has more
miles is probably prone to failure but I know alot of high mileage D's that
still have the original TAB on them w/o any signs of fatigue or failure. (to
the naked eye that is)


Thanks,


Duke
