i mean i never said yes.......i said maybe.

i like getting there early wednesday. if i meet them we gotta wait til everyone gets up and moving. then i bet they wanna stop to grab stuff at walmart, then fuel, then food, it's a fuckin production.

the worst was the year we had like 7 cars or so and even more people trying to organize and whatnot blahhh i said never again lol

idk how people dont kill themselves in the florida caravan. they do like a 7 hour drive in 12-14 hours lol this is why huck finally got smart and leaves with them then quickly pulls an automotive irish exit at their first stop lol

......i've made it from cocoa to pgh in like 13 or 14 hours with stops and 15 hours in a 18ft moving truck.

old guy 04-16-2019 09:07 AM

i cant believe wheel locks for the GTR (or any nissan car) is $70 on their site.

the more insane part is that how does my Z come with them but i gotta go buy a set for the GTR. i just dont trust people and want to get a set for peace of mind.

Sound logic to me

A 4lb BFH didnt work. Hammered away from the rear for a good 2 hours. Tried from the front, not budging. I called SPL and told them my predicament. They said as long as the rear bushing nut has enough bite on the bolt threads I should be ok.

Could get a cannister of liquid nitrogen and shrink the bushing. Just saying ;)

Who did you talk to at SPL? Turner?

You can always drop the sub-frame for more clearance to swing a heavier BFH. :rolleyes:

You hate me enough now as is.

Just saw a 1972, 240 white w/ red interior & red stripe along the rockers go for 40k :eek: it had a rotisserie restoration & was nice..... but the color scheme :confused: but people bid that Thing up to 40k

bunk 04-16-2019 04:19 PM

Lol... I dont hate you. My fault for not being more careful. I didnt get the guys name, but he sounded young. I spoke to my transmission guy, and he said just get the nut in, torque it, some jb weld and call it a day. I could drop the subframe, but if that thing wont budge with a sledge hammer, then I'll be going nuts...

A '72 went for 33k at Barrett Jackson over the weekend. I don't think it was a rotisserie resto.

That burr could be 3/4's of the length of the bushing. The farther it went. The bigger it got. Now it's acting like a wedge lock. On the bright side. You don't have to worry about the bushing moving.

I could get it to move. A 10 ton porta-power with a c clamp press. :tup:

You think the stud on the diff has enough sheer strength since it wouldnt be a snug fit to the bushing?

Smashed fingers are my best memories of using them. :shakes head: Had one that went up to 75,000 psi. Didn't have a flex hose on it. It had thick diameter stainless tubing. :eek:

Think you would be ok. By the looks of it. You're only about 1/8" away. What I would do. Install the diff. Just start the rear bushing nut a couple of threads on. If you go too tight. You won't be able to move the diff. Plus the diff will be too far to the rear to install the 2 front bolts. Install the front 2 bolts by hand, about half way. You will have to wiggle the diff around some to get the front 2 bolts starts. Once started, Do not use an impact on them until you are half way threaded. If you use an impact too soon. You can cross thread one one the bolts. :shakes head: Once the front are snuggled. Tighten up on the rear nut.

Yeah, Ill do this friday. If the nut doesnt have enough bite, Z1 has a used subframe for sale...:ugh2:

Apropos of nothing, anyone have experience removing a stuck compression tester adapter from a CRV?
