Hey Arrma nation.
I was trying to figure out why my wife was breaking shock rod ends on her K6. Running M2C droop screws and RPM arms I thought I had the droop all set nicely…….
I discovered that the droop screws had stripped out the hole in the RPM arms and with every run, the screws were migrating upwards, hence no effective droop setting.
I know I should have done this before but didn’t realize I should have put washers or spacers between the droop head and where the screw meets the arm. Here’s my fix…..a few washers and M4 nuts works like a charm. For those just running straight droop screws, I think this is a good preventative measure, and most likely the way these are supposed to be installed in the first place.
