I have been reading posts for a couple months now and finally bought my CPO 21 ST..
looking forward to meeting everyone. I just realized my ST has only one bolt in the rear. Is this a recall or warranty item or do I need to correct it myself?
Thanks!

Thank you. Glad to be here. I just ordered the AWR diff bracket. Looking to install that this weekend.

Welcome to the forum. That AWR is a good choice.

Thanks! I debated the ID but just couldn’t justify the extra cost. I think the AWR will work fine. I’m waiting on my ZFG tune to come in also.

Make sure you get a ratcheting E18 box wrench for the diff cover bolts. AWR directions say to use a 13mm, but those who tried it say it doesn't work.

This is what I got - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000HBF5MA/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Install was pretty simple. I didn't lift the back end and had plenty of room to work.

I did get the ratchet E18. I didn’t know I could get to it without lifting. That’s even better. I really appreciate the heads up.
I have a silly question.
after the ZFG 93 tune, do you still use the different drive modes? Or is it pretty senseless after the tune?

thanks again!!
