tech checks things like that? at the drags they only check to make sure your battery is not going to fall out.

If you go to an NHRA even and not "street legal drags" you'll find the tech to be much more rigorous.

to check your ball joint you need to jack up the font tire a few inches you are inspecting place a long pry bar under the tire and raise the tire and watch the ball jointit their is verticle movement then they need to be replaced.


the shock bolt on top is it tight?

tony was right about the other parts.

I'll check the shock bolts and ball joint when I get home. If all goes well, I'll take the gtech for a spin and check max skidpad at 20, and 40mph. I'll make adjustments and get back to you. I've never checked my skidpad g, so I'm kinda excited!

But ya, tech is fun. They check battery, wheel bearings, pedal pressure, steering slop, throttle cable/spring, and loose objects.
