INSTALL DAY
When: 230pm till whenver, tuesday may 31
Where: Chris' house

This tuesday, B and I will be swapping suspensions. We've both done it on our own a bunch of times, so it shouldn't end up taking too long. If anyone else needs anything done, or any advice on stuff.. come on out and we'll try to help.

I've got a two car garage, so, come no matter what the weather is (though its supposed to be no chance of rain tomorrow)

OH, one other thing... the rents dont want any painting in the garage (unless its with a brush)

lastly, does anyone have any of this stuff that b was telling me about over the phone 'never ¿sheath?' or something like that.... its something to apply to the threads on the coils to prevent damage. anyway, if anyone has it, i'll give you a beer to smear some of it on my coil.

if anyone needs directions just PM me



and yeah.. good times last night
i was completely drunk at 8pm.. walking around downtown.. haha

Chris are you talking about Anti Sieze? Crappy tire carries it if you wanna pick some up.

Anyways, I work till 5pm tomorrow so I'll stop by afterwards.

guys i can NOT get my spring off my strut. am i supposed to unscrew the big nut at the top of the strut? will that take the upper mount part off and the spring will just pop out?

how do i turn that nut without the whole upper mount turning?

 
Rep Power: 298

step on it...

 
Rep Power: 0

thanks denny.. i'll go pick some up

premium.. be carefull when taking off that nut! yes, stepping on the spring is good and will also make the 'pop' a little less violent

just make sure that just before that nut comes off, the only thing you have infront of the upper mount is your socket wrench (held lightly in your hand).. i've seen those things pop off with pretty much no force, all the way to shooting a few feet across the lawn (so, just be aware).. but dont worry, you wont get hurt unless your face is right there (that is so long as you're doin this on a civic)

 
Rep Power: 298

oh and i probably won't be there tomorrow. i work overnight tonite and probably will be sleeping ...

 
Rep Power: 280

woop! got it

the spring wasnt compressed at all though. all iv done is the fronts though...is it the rears that are under pressue?

 
Rep Power: 0

hmm.. not sure which is more compressed.. i think it may have been the fronts

in any case, neither of them are really bad

time change for tomorrow

b and i will be starting at 12, so anyone is welcome by after that

 
Rep Power: 280

good god. i can only get one of them lol.

the rest are just on there...mind you, all im using is vice grips. i dont have a wrench that fits the nut. a ratchet might do the trick too, but i have no socket that fits over the nut.

may need to borrow someones tools =\

 
Rep Power: 298

 
Rep Power: 280

well i guess i didnt think i needed an allan key, cuz i dont even see where im supposed to put it.

and i couldnt find a wrench so i figured id just try vice grips, and it worked for one of them

where do i put the allan key?

 
Rep Power: 0

look at the bolt that the big nut wrapps around on the top

in the top of the bolt is also a hole for the allen key if i remember right

once you're near the end things seem to become loose enough for you to not need the key so long as you're stepping on it

sorry man, i would have said so earlier.. it thought you were already doin that


if you just cant get it, drive over to my place tomrorow

 
Rep Power: 370

ya the allen key goes in the top of the thread.

 
Rep Power: 350

don't mind Premium, guys......I heard that guy loves giving h e a d

 
Rep Power: 280

LOL! you ******!!

i got em all except one...it just seems to be stuck on there. i might need to come to falcon's place tomorrow to borrow some real tools to give it a go

whats the installation of a set of HID's like? i think im gettin some later this week.

 
Rep Power: 291

LOL ^^^

 
Rep Power: 370

HIDs are easy... I installed Bruno's in about 1 hour. Plug and play... it's just a matter of hiding all the wires.
Also... DO NOT TOUCH THE BULBS.

 
Rep Power: 298

Braden what are you doin wednesday?? i need to use your tools and jack stands if possible...we are gonna do a mini-un-install day and take off my exhast and maybe do the rear drums....

 
Rep Power: 350

Why not just come to Falcon's place tomorrow and take it off there...we'll have everything

 
Rep Power: 298
