Hi guys,
Do any of you run the Metal Tech upper and lower links? Metal Tech 4x4 100 Series Land Cruiser/LX470 Link Bundle stage 1 (upper & lower links)
I have a set of these on my 2000 LX470 and they have problems. The performance is good, but, they tend to snap and pop as I turn. I've made a call to MetalTech but they told me to tighten the jam nuts. I've already tightened these so many times, I just don't know what to do.
Anyway, I think the problem occurs due to the adjustable joint on one end. It looks like the joint twists and hits the side of the mounts every time I turn. It must be catching because the pop is pretty loud. The lower links and upper links both do it. I can fix the problem for a few days, but, the problem only comes back within a week.
Anyone else have this issue?
Mike
