Default RE: "hmm, I don't think that was supposed to happen"

Actually the first day of running I lost both of the steering stoppers (the long silver bolt things attached to the front a-arms). I looked for about a half of an hour in the snow and found both of them.
For some strange reason I felt like checking them today and guess what.... yep they were both loose again. I drilled a small hole at each end of them and ran a piece of wire to tie the ends together. No way they can come of again.
Its good idea to go over a new or used vehiles and check to see if all the metal to metal screws have some locktite.

You can also check the general tightness of all of the of nots bolts and screws

It a good habit to form, before you go and play for the day
