I've been holding off on learning how to fix threads until there was a 4k widescreen tutorial. Thanks!

22:52 had the same thing happen to my rear shock yesterday. I managed to hold steel insert of the bushing with an adjustable wrench and it made enough tension to let the screw get loose. I was so relieved 😂

Yeah, that sounds like it could have been a lot more work.😁

Lots of solid info, I also have the same torque wrench brands. Lang owes you a thank you card for the 971 kit I just bought to supplement my taps and dies

Rear lower wishbone nut, the best wat to remove is with and induction heater. Heat the nut say 5 times for 20 secs, the bolt side 10 times for 20 secs. there is a piece of metal that sticks out from the arm, heat that 10 times for 20 secs. That way the bolt loosens and the bolt comes out of the arms. Plenty anti seize when assembling.

Thanks for sharing some tips! Heat and anti-seize are your friend on rusty cars.

Thread cutting fluid has a fine business model, just not with good repair shops. Questionable repair shops, fabricators, and machinists are where they make their money. 🙂

How does Keith decide which bolts to use anti-seize and which ones to use loctite/threadlocker?

@FlyinMiataVideo 3 ай бұрын

It all depends on how concerned you are with it moving.

Now tell me how to get a broken tap out of the hood from "installing" your hood lift kit lol I broke it 4 years ago and neighbors from 2 miles away could hear my anger, i was so angry that its still there and the hood lift kit is still in my garage lol Ive done 4 of these installs and never had that happen, but you know....luck n such

@FlyinMiataVideo 3 ай бұрын

Oops! If you're willing to remove the hood from the brackets, you should have pretty easy access to the backside of the tap - from there, pliers should be able to grab and turn the tap the rest of the way out.

@@FlyinMiataVideo Yeah lol I had an F150 decide to back over my hood so I have to pull the front fenders to get to the bottom two hinge bolts since both are bent and to replace the hood, funny how things compound LOL
