I am running every arm that was in the groupbuy, and I love it so far. I can't find the fitting to lube them and the shop I took my car to didn't have it either, but I am going to go to a more 240 experienced shop to have things recalibrated and lubed. I have never owned any other arms, but theses are great and have put up with 2 really hard runs a day for a month and a half and all is well. I would recomend.

its a standard grease fitting, find any grease gun and it will have that fitting on there. goto an old skool shop, the old guys working there will know what your talking about because they are from the days of having to grease chassis points on old cars. its called a zurk fitting.

No, it's called a zerk fitting. And if it's anything like the Ctune arms, it's smaller than the normal size chassis fittings, so a regular grease gun won't work. I can't seem to find any real info on their products so I can't verify that though.

those zerk fittings seem pointless to me anyways. The isnt room for grease in the pillowball joint. And none of the high end companies use them, you think they would if it was a good idea.

I have the tc rods, subframe spacers, and RUCAS for my S14. I haven't installed them yet as I'm waiting for my coilovers to show up, I was wondering about greasing them as well. Anyone with some more info on this?
And as far as the product goes, the welds are pretty globby on the rucas and the finish was pretty chipped up, but hey they were like 120$ so I'm more than happy. TC rods and spacers look perfect. Hopefully it'll all be installed by next week...
Powertrix is very reputable company and Charles is very good person to deal with. I'm running those subframe bushings and the Tensions rods for over a year now and everything is perfect. He's very nice and is always willing to help.

im gonna prettymuch agree with everything here. i have the tc rods in the front and i couldnt be happier, build quality is excellent and everything else is excellent the only complaint id have is finish. the rods had shown up at my house chipped and the finish is very easy to scrape almost with your nails but who cares i threw another coat of actual paint on and they are fine. other than that i mean i posted that before and charles pmed me right away to find out if i wanted to swap them for unchipped ones which is awesome. ive seen him bend over backwards in the threads to help other people and i really am happy with the products. i have the subframe spacers too which have done great! overall id DEFINITELY recommend their products and hands down say you should choose them :-) thanks for the awesome stuff powertrix
