Default anyone w/ the lca's and phb from badz, i have a question.

hey guys, well i installed my lca's and phb a couple of weeks ago (very nice pieces btw) and they rattle like hell coming up my driveway. the one on the passanger side mostly. i have a gravel driveway. anyway i have retightened them and they arent going to get any tighter. is there anything i can do to fix this. i thought about trying to wrap the bolt in black tape or something like that to help deaden the sound. any ideas? other than that i love them. hook great

They don't rotate on the bolt; the bolt only supplies the clamping force to hold the inner sleave. My stock LCA's were doing just what you describe, and I though I had tightened all the bolts well, but when I went back over them I found there was indeed one bolt that wasn't fully tightened.
