Please be sure to check yours. Had a track day on Thursday, today I changed oil and checked the links. Both were lose. Be sure to check or they could ruin your day.

meet......if your close to CA shay2 may have a few left over...
Mike,FYI, the lotus service manual that i had downloaded from lotus around august of 2007 shows the updated 60 Nm torque specification for this bolt.
mine were below that when i went to torque them for the first time (had to turn the bolt about 180 degrees more to reach 60 Nm). kinda scary considering i have just over 1400 miles on my car so far. will have to check often to see if they work themselves loose again.
Wow, great photo... toe link failure in progress. Who'd think you'd have excessive oversteer with 20° rear toe out?Don't forget to check your toe links, mates!
The picture was taken this sunday on the Nordschleife. Result: 360° spin but without an impact ... lucky guy! :bow:
