CAT flagged failing fulcrum pins as a problem a couple of years ago, but I never could figure out if the problem was only certain OEM pins, or if all pins were potential victims. Was there ever a fin

There was one list member who knew a professional person associated with the problem say, "every pin is subject to failure." On the other hand there are still people out there with their original pi

Dale, I think it comes down to the fact that they could last another 40 years or could fail tomorrow. Seems something like Russian Roulette. From everything that I've gathered it sounds like maybe 5

I guess its time to put the word out again. But I'm a bit hampered in that the power supply failed in my PC and took the motherboard with it. The hard drive survived, but I have to get an enclosure t

Hopefully to complete this discussion, there are a few factors to keep in mind. First the Fulcrum Pin failure mechanism is due to cyclic metal fatigue. The original design was done a long long time a

Glad you chimed in here. I recently read something you wrote in 2001 regarding this. You mentioned a type pin turned on a lathe which was not only a poor choice, but a dangerous replacement. You alo

Well written Tom. I might add that my advice is for everyone to look at John Logan's fix and do it. I survived two pin failures one at 70mph with wife and son the other a 10 mph while turning right.

You breaking pins twice is a point to ponder. I think others have mentioned breaking pins twice. What is the failure rate....5%-10%? What are the odds of having failure twice? Mark **A Good Credit Sc

Everyone knows (by now) that the incorrect ackerman angle places enormous stresses on the front suspension, especially when backing and turning. This was not a concern when the system was designed fo

As you can see, there is a lot interest in solving the ackerman/fulcrum pin issue with other Tiger owners. Reading that you were discontinuing making your excellent looking suspension left probably
