I didn’t notice this last night when installing the right side, in the dark; but the bolts that comes with the kit are backing off when tightening the nut. I guess I need to pull the whole thing off and start over?

What is the model number of whatever you’re having an issue with, and do you have any pics of what you’re talking about?

I have the 2” spacer kit.

Here is the right side, that I did last night.

And the left side after taking apart and retorquing.

I don’t have the motofabs so I’m not sure- are those bolts splined? At this point, I don’t think there’s any way to avoid taking that back off to see what’s going on.

Yeah, They’re not splined, and an Allen wrench alone isn’t enough. I’ll pull the right side back apart after lunch.
