Need Help!!
This is a stupid question and i probably won't get anything from it but here goes: I have a Fabtech lift (see sig) and one of the cam bolts has broken off, i found out when having the local shop do an allignment, they found a bolt that would fit the spot but it isn't a permanent solution.
I called the place where i ordered the kit and they could only sell me a pack of 4 of the bolts and it would cost me $87 not including shipping.
I really don't want to spend $100 on a bolt, sooooo.... does anyone know where i could get one??? or maybe someone has a spare one in their back pocket or something? I would appreciate any and all help on this. Thanks!!
EDIT: part # is FT<!-- -->F 292 if that helps

Sorry I don't have a bolt. My two suggestions would be:
1) Call Fabtec directly and let them know a piece of their kit broke and you aren't happy about it. (be polite) but see if they would be willing to send a free or low cost replacement. I don't know for sure, but if it is the bolt I am thinking of, a broken bolt could lead to catastrophic failure? This might be another angle to push with them.
2) If all else fails, see if a local machinist might be able to hook you up. We're basically talking about a bolt with an eccentric washer, and you already have the bolt, so they might be able to make the washer part pretty cheap.
Good Luck
