TheBetterMethod Posted March 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 Also, if the failure was caused by over-tightening, there would be some evidence of twisting or thread damage/failure or rounding out of the whole. All of which are none existent. Quote 2005 Subaru Outback Wagon Pioneer 9400BH Fi Q 15, SAZ1500dV3 The first build>>> http://www.stevemead...-outback-build/ 140.9 @ 36hz Sealed on dash!

sphinxbccp Posted March 20, 2013 Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 the first set only lasted around a week, I'm not sure when they broke. My current set is still good, i just BARELY tightened them... hopefully i can find something else to use tho Quote Build log: Click Feedback: http://www.stevemead...xbccp-feedback/ 03 Chevy Blazer - IPad Air 2 - ALPINE Head Unit - 4 DC XL 18s - 2 DC 3.5k - ALPINE TYPE R 5.25 COMP - 3 ALPINE TYPE R 6.5 COMPs - DC 175.4 - DC HO Alt - D3400 - 4 XP3000s - KNU 0ga - 60 SqFt Damp Pro Lots more...

TheBetterMethod Posted March 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 It seems like a terrible execution of a simple design. I'm just gonna replace what I have to with some aluminum or copper. I'll figure that out later.

sphinxbccp Posted March 20, 2013 Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 I've been thinking of asking toolmakers too make something like them, but a solid piece Quote Build log: Click Feedback: http://www.stevemead...xbccp-feedback/ 03 Chevy Blazer - IPad Air 2 - ALPINE Head Unit - 4 DC XL 18s - 2 DC 3.5k - ALPINE TYPE R 5.25 COMP - 3 ALPINE TYPE R 6.5 COMPs - DC 175.4 - DC HO Alt - D3400 - 4 XP3000s - KNU 0ga - 60 SqFt Damp Pro Lots more...

qu1cks1lver56 Posted March 20, 2013 Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 One of mine did that a couple years ago, I contacted Nathan (IIRC) on the forum and he hooked me up with a replacement.

Cc2cuz Posted March 20, 2013 Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 Same problem happened to me. Lasted about a week, and then they just broke off just like in those pics. Went with aluminum bars and never looked back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
