You need to keep that to yourself, because it could be a problem if someone wanted it to be. I would never ever mention it again. I've done my research on the subject, loose lips sink ships. <img alt="" src="https://www.miataturbo.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=150263&dateline=14 42528048" /> <img alt="" src="https://www.miataturbo.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=150264&dateline=14 42528048" /> <img alt="" src="https://www.miataturbo.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=150265&dateline=14 42528048" />

Thanks man, they aren't quite as nice as I'd like but at least you won't ever really see them. The drawbar problems show through into the finish, and they took about 4 times longer than expected while I nursed it along.
After I try these out I'm going to get some more 3/4" material and try the square nut version. Hopefully the mill can keep a friggen grip, so I can get back to reasonable times.
There's a pair in the mail for you, two day. Remember, torque wrench, and I'm not responsible if they fail on track lol

<p>torque wrench.....to what specs? I guess were the manufacturer. We just try different ones until it stops breaking right?</p><p>Relevant:</p><p><img src="http://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.miataturbo.net-vbulletin/600x189/80-ch861126_4a2443637e9259a5036e102f5332de59aba8ae8c. gif" title="" /><br /><br /> </p>

30ft/lb is what I have used for >20 assembly and disassembly cycles trying different things. No damaged threads yet. These brackets were were made out of 1" stock right? I would prefer for my set to be made just like these with only tapped threads. Heck, ill even tap it myself. I already have all the hardware needed.
