Default z10 center bolt is in!

All,

I finally got the bolt in the center mounting point of the z10 radius rod kit in this weekend. We ended up going under the a/c condensor but just removing the two top brackets so it could slide up a bit. The hole was already there, but I think Sonic may have drilled it. Otherwise it's the mythical existing hole they talk about. Anyways, the center bolt made a huge difference in wheel hop. I've only been able to induce hop once since I got the bolt in... I've yet to give it the real test in the rain, though. It was so weird seeing the tach jump from 6k to 8.5k on my first launch and not having the front wheels slamming up and down... just nice, smooth wheelspin.

If anyone cares we used a 60mm long 6mm bolt and dropped it into the hole such that the nut is attached on the bottom side. I also used washers on both ends to help prevent tear out.

Awesome, man I want a set of those things too. I hear it improves steering feel and such even during normal driving.

one turn. I think I'm going to up it to 2 turns to eliminate hop completely.
