GreddyType S adjustment bolt....

[jeepzj94]

I blew it right out of my BOV! I couldn't believe it. So now I have a boost and vacuum leak . I expected it would happen eventually. I got it used from my brother and the threads were already a bit stripped from somebody overtightening the lock nut on the adjustment bolt.....I just wanted to share that. Those aluminum housings probably strip pretty easy, so go easy when tightening the lock nut for those of you that have them.

dang that suck. You can alway drill and tap it for a differ bolt though

Yep, that's exactly what I did!

Yeah My Buddy Did The Same Thing To His. Bolt Just Backed Out On His Though. Boost And Vacum Leak Outa Nowhere Going Down The Road. Havent Had That Problem With Mine. They Are Usually Stripped ### U Have To Adjust Them Alot To Get Em Right

Hmm, glad to see that I'm not the only one that has done it!

I did it last week. I just found a bolt that was a bit bigger and screwed it right in. It tapped itself in the aluminum. It's also a flat head instead of hex, so it's a bit easier to adjust it on the go.
