I do some searching around to find good prices on deez Internets before buying, but when you need a part D'Slam is where I go. I like going in there and giving Tom the finger. Parts dude is OK. I needz coolant, what should I be paying and where should I get it from. I want to get some before AUTOSEX Sundy.

Come at meh...

Boost leak test, bro. First thing chu should do. Then buy some premixed chit from where ever. That's what I would.

Glad to see at least one other person is gonna make it out. Chu have a worker assignment yet?

Robert, use only Mitsu OE coolant, nothing else will work and your car will instantly grenade if you do. Let me know if chu want me to grab you some on Saturday, I can bring it with me Sunday. You'll just need some water to mix it (make sure it's distilled, or not).

Must also use holy water to mix with collant or the pistons will melt.

i feel like im getting annoying with how many questions ive been asking lately...but you guys are just so awesome!

im thinking i might need to remove the entire knuckle to be able to remove my seized bolt at this point. to do that all you have to do is knock the lower control arm down, take the axle nut off, and disconnect the tie rod...and then i could lift out the knuckle and strut right?

i wish one of you could come help me

yeah camber bolt. nut is off but it is seized in the knuckle did some serious hammering/torching/pb blasting and just cant get it to budge at all. does the eccentric need to be at a certain orientation to come out? the flat part of the bolt head is jammed up against the stop on the strut. i didnt pay attention when i did the other side since it basically just came out after 3 hammer hits.

im thinking more hammering may just be a waste of time, but i may give one more try at heating the knuckle, since i was shy with the torch i think. but i feel like i need a different approach...

i would say take the whole knuckle out so you have better leverage to hammer the bolt out. remove the bolt for the lower ball joint, disconnect the tie rod, remove axle nut. pull the knuckle out off the lower ball joint, tap the axle out. the strut and knuckle should come out. if you want to reuse the camber bolt, if you haven't b!tched up all ready, thread the nut back on it so its flush with the end of the bolt then hammer on it so you don't mess up the thread on the bolt.

even though the flat end of the bolt sit up against the stop on the strut, it should still have some wiggle room. use a socket and breaker bar to try to move it. if you put the bolt on the other strut, you'll see how much wiggle room it has.
