Taking out the bolts was a s#*t of a job. And i had a mongrel of a time putting it back in. I needed 3 arms so i could try and line up the holes, get the bolt in, make sure everything is aligned, and then bash the hell out of the bolts. And i have to go thru it all again when i start on my ute :'(Looking forward to that "NOT" Cheers Spider Title: Re: Subframe Bolts Post by: mcl1959 on January 29, 2003, 11:17:10 AM Here is a trick I have done on a few occasions when the subframe does not line up quite right.
Grind a spare long nut down to a bullet head shape and this serves the double purpose of lining up the holes as you hit it through and protects the thread as it goes through. Then simply remove the cap when the bolt is installed and put on the nut. Ken |
