QA1 shock extensions

[ZERO25]

Broke both lr shock shafts at the extensions last nite. Droop limiter in tact, rod positions in standard Rocket locations. Sheared off 1 bolt in each shock mount on birdcage. Track was wet and heavy but smooth!

Has this happened to anyone else?

So the bolt failed but the shock shaft is okay? Pictures?

Nope, broke both shafts right above the shock extension. Sheared one bolt on each where the shock mounts to the bird cage. They're 3/8' bolts.

I've done that on the rr when one of those 3/8 bolts came loose. I'd say they either came loose or you were binding your shock in the clevis with all the drop you added.

Thats possible, but they were checked during our weekly maintenance. Ive always in the past bought longer bolts and put a nylock on, just in case.

Negative on the drop.......havent measured everything to get the right driveshaft.
