my point exactly.

18 months, thank you.:iagree: I love it.

Yeah sure I did, I asked a thousand questions about a stock car... sureeee.:bowrofl:

faster than your stock Z...:facepalm:

kin folk, kin folk.

I was talking about "redodo, or was that a typo? :rolleyes:

i meant redondo.

You guys take your flirting to the NSFW section :gtfo2:

Someone help me with this lower control arm ball joint. I rounded off the castle nut. Can't get a socket on it cause of the driveshaft. Any options I can try before just cutting it off?

:rofl2::rofl2::rofl2:

Tap it with a large flat head between the parapet?
Edit* or would it be crenallations? dunno lol

Can you go get a castle nut wrench. IIRC they look like the kind of wrench for adjusting suspension. Dunno if they have the right size but I would think it should fit in a small space.

EDIT: Or similar a pin spanner like southark said below

See JC about an ark.

I've seen people use a spanner wrench* on castle nuts but have never done it myself.


*IIRC, it's called a spanner wrench. Flat, semicircle with "nub" at one end of inner arc to catch gap in castle nut.

They need to get a motel room. :rofl2:

Out of the garden today. The one zuke is about 14" long. :eek: Grilled the small zuke and the squash. Roasted the chili's in olive oil. For dinner. :yum:

And tonight’s featured special “The Sons Of Katie Elder” :tup:

:rofl2::rofl2:

It's bc he's an ignorant slut who doesn't realize that you "like" Every. Single. Post.

Fresh grilled veggies for dinner reps. :tiphat:

I just "liked" your post. I'm back on the hater list :rofl2:

How many times you want to see Katie getting poked? :icon14:

Got the inside and outside of the Z cleaned today. The inside was a mess. :shakes head:

:happydance:

I love my haters. :tup:

and i love p1ssing them off... feels sooo good. add me to your iggylist itches!

I know why JC likes watching Katie.

daaaaamn.

That's an understatement.

yeah she's a hottie dude.

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I took a chisel to it for a minute. Then I borrowed a 30 mm 12 pt socket and removed the driveshaft to get it out of the way. Hammered on a socket over the rounded edges and chiseling slag and the impact gun made quick work of it. The passenger side should be about an hour job after the driver side experience :tup:

I can see why book rate is $2K at the dealer and $1300 for the local shop. There are several individual items that can potentially be a big pita. But I don't feel like it was a particularly difficult job. With the right tools.

The real takeaway is I need better wrenches. And that's gonna be expensive :shakes head:

I think I know why he can only watch 2 minutes at a time before he needs a nap. :nutswinger:

:icon18:

F U madwi...

I searched assim2002's current selection looking for wrenches and nearly just bought the damn 1/2 inch impact socket swivel set 10-24mm for $500 :rofl2: I caught myself thankfully.

In case anyone is interested...
