Quoted from Whysnow:

you think replacing coil stops is bad...
have fun when you need to retap the bolts that hold the stops.
5 blown bolts in the past 2 months (JP2, BK3K, and EV3)

What are you using to remove the bolts?

Quoted from chad:

So the QA is not greatly controlled.
Thanks

There is a guy in a cage that inspects all parts shipments before parts can hit the floor. But he is checking for tolerances and cosmetic things. Either he missed this or Stern knows about it and is just working through the order. Must have been a TON of bad stops. At this point there is no way Stern is not aware. But with such an inexpensive item I bet most people are just ordering replacements rather than calling Stern.
