Hi all, two questions here  1) Are the a-arms titanium? 2) Anybody ever seen corrosion on them like this before? http://www.terra.es/personal4/stalidilado/aarmshot.jpg You can feel every one of those white bumps, as they protrude out. I have no idea what it is, but I'm pretty sure it can't be the aarms corroding. But at the same time I'm wondering how a just the clear coat can protrude like this. Thanks a bunch. |

They are aluminum. if aluminum corrodes it turns white. there is a problem with some of the ones clear coated along the mold seam ------------------

The corrosion points definately are white on my aarms. Is there a way to tell visually or by touch if the aarms are coated along the mold seam? Also, would you know if they did recalls to correct this? Thanks |

either they are clear coated or they are not. Early `99 had then coated the Black `99 (I think) started with the a arms that were not coated. they are rough to touch. Coated ones are smooth and shiney. Cleaning should keep corrision to a min. If I remember the main complaint was yellowing along the seam My `99 does not have any discoloration. It never sits outside and I do not wash with water very often. ------------------
