While installing the Skyjacker RockReady sub-frame, I found out that the sub-frame arms were not aligned properly prior to it being welded at the factory. I tightened up the subframe plate bolts to the cross-member location and then jacked the front of the arm up to slide the old lower-control arm bolt in and stripped out the cross member bolt threads. I looked a little closer and saw that the arm was not straight and acted like a pry bar on the rear cross member bolt.
Has anyone seen any manufacturing defects from Skyjacker?
I forwarded some pictures to 4wheelparts to see how quickly I can get a replacement. I will post them when I figure out how to do this.
I found a post on fixing the stripped cross member bolt holes and tapped them out to 7/16". Thanks for all the great posts,
