used UMI parts, few questions few questions...
1) what size bolts do i need for the tunnel mounted torque arm? it says the recommend a longer bolt. the seller was supposed to include them, but he did not.
2) this is taken straight from UMI, "The spherical rod end allows for a "Bind Free" operation making a great upgrade for both your track and auto cross driven car. "....but....none of the rod ends move, they are all solid, one of them is even angled instead of being straight like the other 2.
3) are these things supposed to come out?

Hello, I think Ramey is replied or is replying to your e-mail on this.
The spacers are made to come out. The bearing in the rod end is suppose to move, those rod ends look to be in good shape. The bolts are M12 x 100 but your factory bolts will also work.
Hope that helps,
Ryan

The force to move the ball in the rod end should be significant; if it moves easily, then it's garbage. You should be able to put a bolt through the spacers, and with some elbow grease move the ball though.
