    So I sell car parts for a living and work on cars all the time. I can't leave anything alone. So I was just messing with the lower and took off the lock nut by hand. I'm guessing it should be torqued tighter than that. Cause of this the tube loosed and backed up and the pin and spring few out.

    This is the very reason IG preaches to always stake a castle nut.
