Upper control arm bolt paint?
« on: February 05, 2019, 04:04:58 PM »
I did a search and from the one picture I found, it appears the bolts attaching the upper control arm to the subframe are not painted. Is that correct? I'm going to paint it in a couple hours try to cover last minute issues. Thanks

 If you mean the ones that had the alignment shims then no, it wasn't painted. Only the shaft with the end caps/bolts were painted when the whole arm assembly was painted as a unit.
