Thank you for proving to everyone that you have no clue what you are talking about. :thumb:
I have seen countless keeps at dealerships and brand new that have the turnbuckle clamps misaligned thus rendering then useless. Just do a search on here and you will see how many people I've showed that there turnbuckle clamps are misaligned.
sure. ill get on the proof as soon as i graduate with a Master of Engineering in Automotive Engineering. what other proof then my experience can i provide?
surely you know we cant prove much with items of this nature,
your opinion is that it is not needed or its faulty, there is no substance behind that.
being facetious btw jeez clearly we cant prove anything
Doesn't mean it was correct...
never came across factory issues with the drag link but that is news to me... in any case, the jeep drove great, and i spent an hour or so under the jeep the first day of ownership testing the ft lbs on some bolts and making sure everything was in line.
misaligned as in uneven threads on either side? i couldnt imagine this being common, i will look for that thread

If it drove great and there were no issues with the drag link why did you add this $140 paper weight to the drag link?

Actually I should go check mine. I do need to recenter my steering wheel a bit anyways. Thanks for reminding me..

No misaligned as in the clamps not doing shit. Thread count on each side does not matter.
well mostly because its not a paper weight.
Your "jeep drove great" and yet, you still felt the need to look for and spend $140 on a part that supposedly makes your Jeep drive great. Got it. :thinking:
i would say to an extent, you can have a lack of thread engagement...im sure you understand that.
clamps were torqued and the adjusting sleeve was properly setup and clamped
it drove great for a jeep haha jeeeeez man cmon im entitled to modify my jeep as i see fit..
why do some spend thousands on a jeep that only sees pavement? they are entitled to without asking for your opinion. not saying I didnt ask though
i spent my money because i was sure the product would do what it states.
the company got booted because everyone on here has opinions that is the wayalife.
there are plenty of people who installed the attenuator and LOVE IT!!! have you found anyone who said it didnt work as advised, or made things worse?
it does not fix a broken jeep, it improves an already great driving vehicle

When someone has a case of case "Monday's" or gets in a hurry its easy to overlook things whether it be in production or QC. I recently went to inspect our new fire engines in Florida. The company built 8 of them for us. They were all built different even though it's the exact same model. The only thing that was replicated was the big mistakes. They didn't read the build sheet correctly and it wasn't until we, the end user, caught it. Even their QC inspectors didn't. I know fire engines are a bit different than jeeps but it happens all too often. By the way you're the first person I've heard of who took delivery of a vehicle and got home and checked and retorqued factory tightened parts then went on to say on a jeep forum that you doubt the drag link turn buckle was installed incorrectly. If you don't think there could be factory problems what made you take the time to go retorque everything?

Like I said do some research. You like to think you know what you are talking about but it's clear you do not know. Maybe someone else will be nice enough to show you what I am talking about. My giveafuck meter is on empty right now.

Because it was his mom's money. He confirmed that for us a few posts ago...haha.
LOL!! You and me both. I tried my hardest to avoid this stupid thread based on the title alone but I kept getting people telling me that I need to look at it. The whole thing is a joke and I still can't figure out why the OP wouldn't say what the product was or post up any pics. It's almost as if he got something free at Jeep Beach and part of the deal was for him to pimp it on all the forums. :naw:
