Good night everyone. I am Juking it down to Long Beach (420 miles) tomorrow at o'dark thirty with the Mrs. and our dogs. We are going to spend the weekend with Mom and Dad (while he still knows who we are). Not a nice way to go, that Alzheimer's.

With the proper tools, the "demon bolt" is not difficult at all.

haha, wish I had you there then "Master of the Demon Bolt" lol

I think one of the funniest things they tried was one guy underneath lifted car with a gas torch

another on a ladder with a tool in the engine bay

guy with torch had a cigarette in his mouth by the way lol.

All you need is (all in 1/2" drive...): a 3' long extension, a good breaker bar, a good 2-3' pole to put OVER the breaker bar to extend it, a good swivel, and a 6-point impact socket. I had Blades put his hand underneath the extension (so I didnt smush his plastic inside the engine bay), added the pole, pulled, and snap. Both broke with, really, minimal effort. Mine came out intact, even.

The mileage means nothing, it's all in how you approach them. Who cares if they break in the end, anyway? lol

Oh, I hope they didnt charge you obscene labor for that circus :-p

Here was my tool for when I did it in my own car:

Maybe one of you can point me in the direction I need to go. If you're in for some light reading and general complaining.

Thread relevancy: I drove in to work today for the first time in 2 days. I missed my baby.

Hey Pint, I just pm'd you.

You didn't use the pole brush that they supply (complete with the dirt of a thousand cars), did you? :eek:

Good morning all!

Removed side skirts, spring perches, and inner tie rod. Waiting on parts to get here to get this baby to the body shop.

Good morning guys. Taking the S2000 to the beach tomorrow. :)
