I think I may have started the bad rumors.
By Dave Shoe - 12/07/2001 8:57:26 PM; IP 216.243.158.116
I posted my "theories" on the construction of these hybrid bolts a few times. As far as I know they have never failed in service, and they may be superior to stock 13/32 bolts - I simply don't know.

If you've heard bad things, you might want to mute your concerns a bit. I never heard any bad talk about them 'till I started into my baseless philosophical rants on the suckers.

On the other hand, ARP would seem to have an obligation to have warned me, the valued customer, that these were a hybrid design. They got my money for a set, and after looking at them I decided to stick with the stockers (but modifying the stock nuts so they're shorter).

I'm a hair-trigger away from hopping into "full-rant" mode on this topic again, but since I'm not nessessarily correct (I only THINK I am), I'll hold off for now.

Shoe.
