Hey all, I did a search, and couldnt find info on this: is anyone aware of a known drop in replacement for these? I recently got my calipers back...
I mean, I knew better. The question is really "did I know better in that very moment", the answer to which is a definitive no!
Thanks all. So, to back up and explain how I had to cut an inch off the bolt in the first place... When I was stripping the suspension apart,...
ahhhh, votes down the middle.....the plot thickens!
Ahhh. hmmm. I have new nyloc nuts i can use, but i dont think i'm gonna get 2 more threads showing....votes?
Hi all-when I disassembled my suspension, one of the rear forks was seized to the frame. I had to shave a portion of the welded bolt off to get it...
Do you mind sharing which model Sanden? And did you upgrade just the compressor, or did you do a full kit, a-la Classic Auto Air? Thanks.
Perfect-my tech said he torqued it to "around 15 ft/lbs), so that sounds about right.

I wouldn't be surprised if this was a carpet- or interior-designated plastic rivet, especially if you found it laying in the foot well. GORGEOUS...
I put mine in from the outside inwards, probably just because the ergonomics of lubricating them and pushing inwards was easiest. A more...
Are your shrouds inside the wheel well "factory"? My car doesnt have them, and I don't recall seeing any images of suspension with the shroud...
As someone who just did this last week, and sat them on the forks, I don't see how it could matter when done. They will fit so snug in the chassis...
Any off the shelf fuel pressure gauge should get you in the door. Make sure it comes with an assortment of fittings; you'll obviously need metric....
Please forgive me and disregard if this sounds obvious; 2 things that may help: 1-you mention seeing the fuel flow, so I'm going to gather the...
I mean, it's old hat on here, sure. But the thread title itself is still literally the 2nd result on a google search for "Birdman 308".... hey,...
Thanks Gordon! Dunno if this hits for anyone, but the sense of satisfaction when that hose finally is pulling freely was a big rush.... While I...
