I've got a 2014 P85, and this doesn't work... Your bolt comes out far enough for the end to clear the one half of the bracket. Mine has a different shape on the casting (toward the front of the car) that's way thicker than on yours. And of course it lines up to the bolt so it can't slide out as far. I don't see a purpose for the additional material on mine either, just a thick spot right in front of the bolt. Tesla must have done that to increase sales of bolts :) Very glad it worked for you, and glad to know it's possible at least on some of these without cutting the bolt. I saw this months back, finally got to messing with the link (changed the camber) and thankfully found your video again to see things changed through the years.

I'm curious, what state are you in??? Those nuts didnt look nearly as rusty as mine were. You are either gonna have to cut the nut off with a torch, cutting saw, use a nut splitter, or get creative because they arent coming off with traditional hand tools. Im in Indiana btw.

I’m in Wisconsin but I’m religious about multiple underbody flushes in the winter to wash away the salt. Also when I do regular maintenance like brake pads or tire rotation, I use the opportunity to cover bolts with anti-seize to help prevent road salt from getting on the threads.
@carrizzle9586Күн бұрын
@@marenothecarguy8361 Great video!!! I thought you were in the South or somewhere hot and dry with no salt, like Nevada or Arizona. But yeah bolts looked 1000x better than the ones I'm fighting with right now. 😆 Gotta do more winter preventative maintenance for sure.

@@BIGmil20 I just don’t get how spending years saving for”mods” is different than saving to just get a good car. I’ll be honest, this whole supposed”car culture and express yourself with”your build” stuff” is dumb to me, specifically when applied to performance. Like a”modded” C6 grandsport with 800 HP and lambo doors will NEVER be even a lightly tuned ACTUAL ZO6, because they are simply built different, all that so called”shine” is referred to as generic or rice, depending on application.
