Doing air struts,problem

sorry but i think hes complainin about that nut because its a nylock, not because its really that tight, its just tight on every turn, wich is where my ingersoll rand cordless electric .5 inch comes in handy, 299.99, with 2 batts, charger, and case.oh and that last reply was for ms m8:slam
 
For about $50 you can get a electric impact driver... it's what I use.. Don't have a large enough compressor to run the air tools.. Takes that dang nut off fast..

I haven't had any troubles getting that thing off yet..
No, The problem was the bolt was rusted in the sleeve and i did not want to wreck my bushings and if i used air tools it would of ripped the bushing and spun in there attached to the bolt and sleeve and then i would of been up a creak with out a paddle
 
Eddie is the best i have talked to him and he is sending me a new one now just in case the one strut is no good because of the main billet cap was lose from the factory, some boby was sleeping that day at work ,that is a great company and i would recommend him to anyone and the good news is that i put grease on the oring on the billet main nut and resealed it and put it together and the car is standing up and for some reason it is running like a raped ape and the ride is smooth
 
you own your own mark and work on it! i think i might propose. sorry ive just never seen you reply to a tech article. THATS HOT :eek: :eek: :eek: :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: :headbang:
You are talking about the MsM8tress right and i cant believe she was the first one to offer me help,Thanks MsM8tress
 
Get a long Breaker Bar they have them at Advance for the giant price of $17.00 for a 24" one. still not enough, then put a pipe on the end, still not enogh, check to see you're turnin the right direction.
Yes i have the right tools i have been jamming on cars for a long time at one time i had 20 cars i was working on but those days are gone and life is easier with 1 or 2 or 5 or just enough for a week,my problem is rusty bolts and nuts and not screwing up rubber bushing with heat and a impact gun but i got lucky and i took my time and got them lose without melting my bushings
 
Don't for get about PB Blaster... great on the rusty stuff... much better than WD40...

Stuff smells bad but works great... Just adding more info for the lurkers...
 
Eddie is the best i have talked to him and he is sending me a new one now just in case .........that is a great company and i would recommend him to anyone

I never lie when I say Eddie's the best.... Easy to talk to and great help....

You call those other guys and they might talk to you if you get lucky... or you get some rep.. who is only out for the bucks...

Eddie is one of us... plus he worked for Ford a trained tech... knows his stuff..
 
Luv Ya Hotties ....gesh looks like I am going to have to pay more attention to tech help posts...I've been neglecting LVC Hotties, sorry!

Pappa, normally another LVC member would have beat me to it, but the long holiday weekend prolly had most with family, glad I could help, still curious about the solenoid tip, what did Eddy say (I love that man, he will do all he can and more for ya), I've never EVER seen that top lug off!

1bad your making me blush...everything I've done to my Mark, I've learned right here, Ray, Roach, Driller, Torq, Roadboss, Ohiorudeboy, Eddy too...I LOVE LVC (and I am sure the list of LVC members who have helped me is far longer than what I have here)!!!!! You should see all the parts I've taken off totaled Marks, the white one I had is all over the country now, living on in other LVC members Marks. I love working on him, actually I don't let anyone else work on him unless I'm watching...(hated to leave him when I got the pipes done, but I had been driving all night and Roach highly recommended these guys, so I left him on trust).

Yup Papa, these Marks know when their tummy has been rubbed, they love attention! Wait till you give your Mark a tune up, those are much more difficult than the struts! There is one thing that you guys never told me though, when working under the hood - wear stilettos, I'm only 5'8" so the extra inches really save my back (lucky for me I keep my heels on the back of the garage door)!

Pepp - nice to know I can count on ya! lol!

Glad you got your Mark raising!
Smooches!
