My BP came in today nice and packed up. Thanks Corky!

Got my breast plate yesterday and put it on right away. But while torquing it down to 28 ft./lbs. one of the bolts sheared off at the head. It must have been defective or something. Now I have to take it off and try to get the threaded part out.

Oh Boy!

But even with one of the middle bolts gone the Spyder feels much more solid. Thanks Corky. Check your bolt source, too.

Too bad about the breakage, on the good side - you should be able to twist out the threaded part after you remove the brace. There shouldn't be any pressure on the screw, and it should turn out.

Well this just about wraps up this round of braces, and I want to thank you guys for making all this happen, if it wasn't for your support nothing would have happened at all.
Spyders, Spyder Drivers, and SpyderChat are all pretty cool.
Here is the list as of today, I'm waiting for payment from a few people yet. I need to hear from a couple of people yet before I can cut loose with any of their spoken for braces. I'll let this rest until the 1st of the month then see where we are.

Received my BP in the mail today and immediately installed it. AMAZING! Thanks Corky!!!!!

 

[pelinors714]

received mine also! looks so pretty ^_^

 

[larrydavid]

I'd like to reserve a BP.

 

[spyderboy]

I just received my BP. Very, very impressive. Will have to wait until we get nice weather around here to do the install.

 

[ju5tchi11in]

received mine also! looks so pretty ^_^

Nice Spence, you have been doing a lot of upgrading recently looks good man.

Nice Spence, you have been doing a lot of upgrading recently looks good man.

thanks rob, sad to see you selling the spyder, but other things are more important than just a car. hope to see you around still

 

[bob12312357]

Got my BP today. My brother is hogging the jack stands but I can't wait to get it installed.
+1 for doing business with Corky, solid vendor

 

[spyderboy]

Installed my brace today, also sheared a bolt off (had my torque wrench set to 28 LBs), went back and redid them once I removed the bolt. Looking at the factory bracing, it's amazing that they put that dinky sheet metal on the car the way they did, I'm surprised most members haven't lost a tooth filling going over bumps.

Received my BP today! I can't wait to get it installed tonight!
+2 for doing business with Corky, very solid vendor!

this is the 2nd time i hear of someone busting a nut. what's up with everyone breaking the bolts? are the oem ones not good or rusted due to age?

 

[mztykal]

What kind of bolts are you guys using? Not the stock ones?

 

[Solennel]

this is the 2nd time i hear of someone busting a nut.

...phrasing...

But seriously, good question.

 

[s13mASSImo]

I would also like to get a breastplate. I contacted Corky but he told me to watch this topic as he is waiting for the next batch to be done. So if I can be added to a list, that would be ideal!

 

[Cris]

this is the 2nd time i hear of someone busting a nut. what's up with everyone breaking the bolts? are the oem ones not good or rusted due to age?

+1. I broke 2 bolts while installing the BP and had my torque wrench set to 26 lbs (2lbs below the required torque). The bolts I used was the ones Corky supplied, but no complaints on the BP it looks great.

 

[larrydavid]

Next BP batch

When will the next BP batch be put together? I definitely want one.
