• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Greasing the A arm bushings

I've got a slightly loose bushing on one of the A arms. Can I ride it? I have 2 rides, one is a ride I put together and one is to get it to the dealer. Both about 100 miles each.

Until I can take it in to get them replaced, I want to grease them and my normal grease gun coupler is difficult to get into the small space. I don't want to remove the trunk. Tried the coupler with slotted opening and it doesn't work real well. Thinking of trying something like this:

Looking at the differences between the '13 & '14 bushings, it looks like the '13 can't use the '14 bushings. The bolt that goes through them is the same, but the A arm is different. Darnit!
