Defect SummaryCertain square-shaped u bolts used with these lift/lowering kits and lift/lowering blocks can break during installation when torqued to the manufacturer's specifications.
Consequence SummaryA break in one of the two parallel u bolts will cause excess vibration and could also cause the axle to shift. if both u bolts break on one side, the axle will shift causing the tire/wheel assembly to shift out of position increasing the potential for a vehicle accident.
