I wish it was that easy!

I bascially need to soak these things in a rubber dissolving chemical and then attempt to press them out.

I am going to drill a bunch of holes around the sleeve so the paint stripper can get int here and work its magic.

 

Kill it with fire

 

The job would have been done by now is ES made some freaking sleeves.

 

way to messy I did that on one of them though!

 

I have had this low speed "clunk" noise since the week after I did suspension and swaybar. All the research says loose links cause this noise but I have tightened them several times. I preloaded the suspension twice and check all the nuts/bolts. One time the links were in fact loose...just FYI....the AP link have extremely cheap lock nuts (this will be remedied soon). Is there any reason I would not be able to drive around for a day with the bar disconnected (nothing overzealous obviously) to see if the noise goes away?

I wouldn't describe the noise as a "dangerous sounding noise" but it sure is hell is annoying!

 

Disconnecting the front bar should be okay but please drive as gingerly as possible. But watch out for others.

 

How does a ginger drive?

RACIST!

 

technically all I should be is body roll and possible wheel hop right? guess I'll find out

My goal is to take it off and drive around the neighborhood where all the kids are playing in the street...jk.....dont need to go fast but I wanted to be prepared in the event I didnt get everything back together tonight.

 

I'm not sure how it will be in an RX-8 but I did drive my dads jeep with the sways disconnected and it was scary.

 

damn, I can see you are testy is it cause you hole is pulged....dont worry man it will be ok

We I iwll let you know how it goes....links are coming off, please make the noise go away....please make the noise go away....please make the noise go away....

 

Woot, I just won front brake calipers with 6,000 miles on them for $50.00

 

ha!
glad someone I know bought them, I've been meaning to get rid of them for some time.

 

Are there more things like that Jedi?

 

You had some? My front right was seized, I got it un seized before i garaged the car but I figure while the car is up and apart I might as well address it and since these are basically new they should be great..

 

there's a ton of stuff in my garage I should probably get rid of.

 

I need the plastic piece that holds the shift boot (mine has holes for non existent nitrous buttons).

 

alright...no front swaybar was interesting....reminds me of my F-150

 

Nah I was just joking around... I get over **** pretty quickly, also i think its gonna be cool melting rubber.

The only shitty part is the amount of money I need to spend on the whole endeavor. at this point I could have gotten the expensive bushings with the sleeves.

So lesson learned buy the drop engineering/MS/Speedsource upper/lower control arm kit.

 

Holy **** sticks!!!!

I believe in god again...

so I have access to delrin stock as well as a lathe, I wonder if it is possible to DIY a bushing set.....hhhhmmmm

 

BTW....congrats DC....tear it up!

 

Oh I was just messing with you, I knew you weren't serious.

 

It would be but you would need new sleeves. You should see his DIY on polyurethane bushings.

Oh it will be torn, melted, cut, pinched, and finally will meet its demise!!!!

LOl excellent glad you picked up the sarcasm!

 

oh now your just hurting my feelings....lol

 

jedi has goodies for sale?
