Play in Skunk2 rear kit?

Mine are coming today and was going to install them later this week. I just read the quote below about them. It was posted back in Oct 2007 so I am hoping that Skunk2 had made the fix and the ones I am getting today are good. Can you please confirm this. Thanks Mike




"Guys, be careful on the Skunk 2 rear kit, currently they have an issue with the bushing is smaller and the result is there's a play after driven for a while the bushing gets weak.
Skunk will replace the bushing as well the pin that goes in, both pieces are redesign and fit snug.
I will recommend to sent it to Skunk or to call them before install them. Save your self time and alignment money"

Anyone from Corsport on here yet to answer this? Also just got my stuff and the lower arm bar was ordered the hard anodized but clear showed up?
I am thinking that if you sent me the comptech supercharger if would make me forget that it is the wrong color. Okay if that is too much maybe a t-shirt?
Everything looks nice and looking forward to putting it in.

That has been fixed... + any new problems you might have will be under warranty at skunk2.

Feel free to send us back the clear one and we will send you the hard anodized one, sorry they sent you the wrong one. We drop ship those from skunk2, and did not think you would forget because of the charger.

What is your shirt size??

Fatboy 2xl size.
I will just keep the clear one because I need to install it before the weekend. I really won't see much of it if I put the diffuser back on anyways. I was just giving you a hard time.

THere is no instructions, I am assuming that I should grease the bushings before installing them to help keep them quiet?

Glad to hear that they fixed the problem, because I will doing lapping days with the car and would not want the play that I read about on some of the earlier units. Thanks for your help!

Is the hard anodized one the black one or is it the silver one?
