I agree, your looking at a big PITA without a lift. But good luck and let me know if you end up needing some help.

Steve

 

The videos should be pretty good though.

 

man i dont recomend that speically on a awd tranny, didnt u have problems puttin on ur boost controller?

 

Is this for me? i think ill be fine, I have two mechanics in the family (brother+dad) with many years going for them.. have every tool possibly needed for the job.. I dont know if it will be that bad The MBC was not hard at all to hook up, i just had no idea which line was the vacuum on the MBC and had it hooked up backwards it was a simple 10 sec fix..

 

Doesnt matter if they are....Its hard for anyone..you ll see!

 

keep in mind you will need a slide hammer to pull the intermediate shafts out of the transfer case. The Cv shafts come right off, then you need a slide hammer and we have a welded nut/bolt that we screw in and slide hammer out. thats really the only safe way to remove the intermeditate shafts out. on the ground, the ACD trans/transfer cases are an absolute b**ch. It took me 5hrs on the lift.. add about three for pissing around with things and not being able to put the car up and down. good luck

hey every one how many people are showing up tonight at the starlight cruize ?

and to the only evo that went to the track on wed night looked like you ran a good run

 

Here is a repost of Info on a previous page from Mike

12121 Perry Highway, Wexford, PA. Also here is
the link. http://www.starlitecarcruise.com/news.html Kinda cool the Pittspeed.com guys
will have there "Pinks" car there. Glad to see there is some interest.


Website says it starts at 6pm. Any idea when it ends? I may drive by as I am having dinner until 8 or so.

 

idk, it looks like its an ANTI japanese car fest. But there seems to be some badass cars there. I might check this out.

Steve

 

no there will be some imports its the import night and it ends like 10:30

 

Thanks for the input, will come useful when needed during the job.. I must stay confident and not be worried... Im starting to think you guys are getting paid from local shops to persuade me to have them do it I dont even have the clutch yet and there is this much hype lol cant wait to just get it over with

 

hahah.. I c ould careless where you get it done or if you do it. But the slide hammer is a $100.00 tool and you have to order a cheap one in, or pay even more for a Matco or snap-on one locally.

 

Hey guys, we got a FEW sets of Volks in stock. 1 set for the evo 2 for the wrx. Let me know if you or anyone you know is interested. Prices are very low compared to other vendors.

Steve

 

yeah what's the deal with this? are we meeting ahead of time to roll out there? or is everyone just going to try to find their own way?

 

Im going to have to ask my brother if he has on in his bag of tricks!
if not, Auto supermarket rents tools.. Man i have a few projects ahead of me.. Changing the struts windshield and transmission on my saturn next friday then the week after that is the EVO...
