Captain Ficho Posted April 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 I'm having a bit of difficult with the fact that all the bolts have rounded off, so using a wrench isn't really working and I can't get them with pliers. I've wanted to get it off a few times before but my wrench doesn't grab them well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White93z34 Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 I just don't get how in gods name those little 8mm bolts should EVER get rounded off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BXX Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 I just don't get how in gods name those little 8mm bolts should EVER get rounded off. Seen it alot. People overtorque them, they rust, and then someone uses the wrong tool to try to remove them. I deal with that bullshit everyday at work. Either have the correct tools to do the job, or dont do it at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BXX Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 The side post issue pisses me off more than anything... Its a fricken 8mm wrench!!!!!!! You dont have to have the special $5 sidepost wrench, just any old 8mm wrench works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
