[gsu240]

ive bought the spacer bushings from group buys, i cannot seem to get a damn bolt to budge. car is on stands and i jacked the differential up a little but i cannot get the nut to move at all, has anyone done this istallation and if so how did you get that nut off???

???HUH?!
why you taking nuts off the diff?

are you talking subframe spacers?

[gsu240]

yes subframe spacer, not bushing, i dotn know why i typed that

here is a pic of the nut

[Dousan_PG]

use some liquid wrench
use a breaker bar

it will come off
gotta use more muscle

ive put those on at least (maybe more) 7 cars. i've done it A LOT
just takes some more msucle

use a breaker bar

toso and i were able to do a customer's car in about 20 mins haha

(toso did the first group buy on those things for 240sx back in the day)

if you don't mind me askin'...what are the functions and benefits of this spacer? thanks for the info

[gsu240]

check the group buys section for the thread, it has all the details

Or read my review of the whitelines in the review section.

Real easy install. Those nuts can't be that stuck on an S14.

Anyone (dousan) know what the nuts should be torqued to when you put them back on?

[AKADriver]

Same as stock. ~50 lb-ft IIRC. I'll look it up later if noone replies with the real answer.

[gsu240]

on the directions i received with the spacers, it says 65 lb/ft torque
