maybe other people do that too, but i just figured it out tonight :p I usually use an impact, but i forgot mine at work.

eh just use 2 screw drivers..

What size wrench is that? I actually needed to find a way to do this to remove my chain pulley.

[krustindumm]

14mm, but depending on brand they change length. That is some cheap ass benchtop brand wrench, no way am I abusing my snap-on's like that, even if they have a warantee.

i hear an impact wrench works wonders.

Another dude can also just hold the crank still from the pulley with a wrench also. Just borrow a friend for a sec. No need to get fancy shmancy.

some of us don't like relying on other people and need to utilize our enginuity to accomplish our goals single handedly.

ever install a diff all by yourself? i have.

[upSLIDEdown]

I've done a diff by myself. It wasn't that awful hard...

[Omarius Maximus]

Whats the difficulty in that? The only hard part would be having a decent jack to support the damn thing so it doesnt fall on your head, otherwise: easy. I did it on my bros M roadster, with a shitty made in china jack which is the only reason I needed help. hahaha. Also, its good for someone to be their to pull the e brake up and down so you can tighten the driveshaft and axle bolts faster. Just a matter of convenience.

once I absolutely couldnt do something without the help of a friend... that job waited 2 weeks while I waited for this guy to stop being a flake, fancy shmancy I can rely on. if you're 21 and can supply beer, then you can probably rely on people to help.

i left mine at work, and wanted it done right away. Some people don't have air compressors or impact tools available at all. And some other people like to torque things to the propper spec, not just *3 clicks*.

So how about next time you don't like a helpful hint, you just don't post. :cj:

I had to change my diff 3 times by myself :smash:

But it might've been harder for your since you have a s15 hlsd..

yes I have, twice. Now, have you ever done a 93 thunderbird heater core by your self? Thats hard.

To the point of this thread, I couldn't see the picture well enough to tell what you did. But way to get shit done. :bigok:

im sure its a helpful hint, i was just rubbing in the fact that i DO have brand new air tools that really help with these things. i just use air tools when pulling stuff apart and putting stuff on that's not so precise (rims, body panels... etc etc).

compressors arent that expensive, if you have a garage its one tool you should really invest in.
