petone 0 Report post Posted March 27, 2005 So burning is the easiest way to get them out then? I got IE ones sitting in my room along with trailing arm ones waiting to be put in. Tis my project for the break along with replacing my bent subframe. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gus 5 Report post Posted March 27, 2005 how did you get IE ones? they shipped em over? how much were they? just curious yeah its easy as....just heat the sh*t out of em, then lever the tabs at the bottom of the subframe with a screwdriver/chisel and then use a claw hammer.....then it becomes easy!

CaM 0 Report post Posted March 27, 2005 shouldn't heat suspension/steerig components........ it can affect their structural integrity Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
petone 0 Report post Posted March 27, 2005 I think it was $220 for incl shipping for the 2 subframe ones and 4 trailing arm ones. I was going to get the adjustable trailing arm ones but people said they lost adjustment so I've got to get the new subframe modified like in that link glenn posted a while ago. I'll let ya know how it all goes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But if you don't have access to a press then you don't have much choice!! CaM: you only burn the rubber out, not heat the subframe up to hundreds of degree's C and wait for them to melt out!!

Gus 5 Report post Posted March 27, 2005 cam your such a pussy heating up suspension components is cool mine took c.10min for one side and about 3 for the other once i figured out what to do...... whats a press cost? 220 for subframe and trailing arm ones is good......however i in no rush AT ALL to go back in there and do trailing arm ones...so ill just live without em....hmmm fresh diff n g box oil Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
