yup that's it..but good luck getting the bushings. Daizen is lazy nowadays, especially since it seems like they've shift production over to china or something. Shifting production oversea usually results in a pretty long delay if the current batch is already out.

ok gonna order them tommorrow...but! tonight when i was driving it home, i noticed where the slack part is, it now makes a squeaking sound like two rubber pieces being pressed and rubbed together...how bad is that...just noticed it...should i also purchase one of those grease packet things too? or it should come with it? and yes i'm full on ordering these tommorrow, so thank you for all the help.

peace out
