    CV issue

    im trying to put a cv into the pass. side of my r50, ive done the other side 3 times or so and can do it in an hour, but im having an issue with this side. i can put 2 (1 pair) of the bolts in , and get 2 more to fit in the holes, but the last two holes do not line up, is there something special on this side that needs to be done? i compared the new to the old axle an d they line up fine. any suggestions on how to get this in?
  2. the duralast is rebuilt, and make sure they test it at the store before you leave.
  3. it ended up being a loose swaybar endlink, i had to put a allen wrench in the bolt while tightening the nut.
  4. I replaced the struts & strut mounts on saturday and broke the CV axle in the process when i pushed down/pulled out on the hub/rotor, so i replaced it. now most of the time when the suspension moves IE turns,bump,etc, it makes a popping noise, i thought this was a bad CV so i replaced it again, what else could it be? i did notice im missing an oring between the snapring and the hub, could that be causing this?
  5. autozone/kragens/etc can probably order the stock ones for you.
  6. so is anything coming for a bumper?
  7. nice, is there a hole in the factory bracket that their mount will work with?
  8. are you sure the 550's will fit? they looked too big when i saw them. any one done it/have pics?
  9. anyone have a write up or pics on this? im doing this later today. thanks.
  10. but will the sahcs springs be valved wrong and not be able to control the OME springs? will they be long enough? etc.
  11. OT in this thread, but will stock struts and shocks(sachs) work with OME springs, or are the OME springs/struts longer? is sachs a good brand?

  13. i just replaced my radiator on my 96, 200 from autozone. it was leaking near the top somewhere and causing coolant to sit on the ring around the top with crimped edges.
  14. anyone have a pic of where this is at? is it the diamond shaped plate with two bolts between the round thing(brake booster?) and fender on the drivers side?
  15. i have 31x10.5 bridgestone with the stock 6 spoke alloy wheels from a 96
  16. i have 31x10.5 on the 6 spoke rims and no rubbing that ive ever noticed.
  17. what brand do you all use? should i look for NKG?
  18. on 8-13 i changed the oil and put in castrol 5-30 high mileage oil, when i checked it once done it read full( i put in 4qts) about a week later it was reading only half full( cold) now today it needed some when i checked it (hot). is 5-30 too thin to use in this engine/weather? it has 131k miles and its been ~100 in the bay area lately. should i add thicker oil? drain it all and put in thicker oil? put in lucas oil stabilizer? i used that last time with regular castrol 10-40 and it lost no oil, but it wasn't as hot then.
  19. i think dextron 3 is the equivalent
  20. ok, what about the dust cap?
  21. couple more questions, will i need a new dustcap? will i need an alingment afterwards? and do the bolts on the knuckle have to be to a certian torque? and the ones on the axle/diff?
