KaiserRolls Posted February 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 Son, I am disappoint. Didnt mask the hardware, diff tag, or the vent tube I could sand it off maybe. I didn't clean up the hardware so it's not going to stick well anyways. Couldn't read the diff tag either Oh And it'll be under the car So Eat Shit Snap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassboy3313 Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 Isn't that way more work than taping it off in the first place? [emoji14] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaiserRolls Posted February 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 Isn't that way more work than taping it off in the first place? [emoji14] Compared to taping off individual bolts a vent tube and a diff tag? What was the oem color the bolts should be? #showseason2018 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B C Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 "Why buy new when slightly used will do?" Unmasked bolts are like unfolded side mirrors during proper winter storage mode. You should always mask your bolt KaiserRolls 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaiserRolls Posted February 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 Got the new wheel bearings and hubs pressed into the trailing arms today. Only things I'm waiting on is the skid plate & tierods (and the crap I haven't ordered yet) Gonna hopefully convince myself to work on it tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaiserRolls Posted February 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 This was more of a pain in the ass than I'd like to admit, especially by myself Butttttt the rear sway bar is in. ST 19mm. Can't imagine doing that with all the subframe crap in the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B C Posted February 22, 2016 Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 I can confirm the lack of joy that takes place during sway bar installs. The flatter cornering is all worth it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boris3 Posted February 22, 2016 Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 With the subframe in place installing the larger sway involves both wheels off and creative threading the bar in from the passenger side. It works but is a pain. Key is to figure out the proper orientation before you start threading it in. Much easier your way.

KaiserRolls Posted February 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Rest of the parts have arrived. 24v skid plate from red46 Inner and outer e36 tierods Driveshaft nuts Spring pads Still need to order Suspension (coils?) Brake pads Front brake lines And probably some misc stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
straight6pwr Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 sway bars suck third-ed and move to strike. glad you got a skid plate, they are 100% necessary for these swaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
