Q-Ball Posted November 22, 2007 Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 The plastic cover that covers the nut? It just slides off lol. Pull it towards you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joey b Posted November 22, 2007 Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 yes, it just slides off. You don't need it after that so don't worry if you mangle it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Q-Ball Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 yes, it just slides off. You don't need it after that so don't worry if you mangle it. Yeah you dont need it after. It's just shows you if they were stock. I was able to re use one of mine. The other one wasnt even there when I replaced it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GutlessSupreme Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 uuh.. you are supposed to keep those in there, pretty sure it acts as a bushing. And I don't see how it would be possible to mangle it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joey b Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 I'm under the assumption that he is talking about the very thin plastic covering that you have to pull off of the inner tie rod head before loosing it from the rack.

GutlessSupreme Posted November 25, 2007 Report Share Posted November 25, 2007 as am I, I don't remember it being that thin though. maybe I'm getting confused with my girlfriend's civic rack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Q-Ball Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 ummmm do i need the tool to do this or just a pipe werch or somthing? I rented a special tool from Canadian tire. My shop manual says you can use 2 wrenchs, but it didnt work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Q-Ball Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 So you still havent gotten it off? Torch it like said in the other thread. Maybe you someone could combine the 2 threads? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mediabandit Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 at the very least hit it with the propane torch, that is what i did to get the ones of the Z34 parts car i stripped a little while ago. it worked fine for me, soon as i hit them with the heat they just popped off.
