Killa · Jul 22, 2008

some how on passenger side, 18 long socket not work, I have 10 extention and 18 deep socket, I dont know how to get it off.

Im drive my car to the shop tomorrow, they charger $40 to put my o/r h pipe on. I already disconnect and take off .2 front o2 sensor and 2 rear o2 sensort, its ok to drive 15 miles without them ? it loud ass hell/

Use pb blaster instead of wd40 and let it sit for like 10-15 minutes , use long breaker bad with long extension and swivel socket. Thanks it.

darkside03gt · Jul 22, 2008

dont drive it without the o2 installed your ecu will freak out and put your car into limp mode. do you have a friend with a impact gun? are you using a breaker bar and some kind of penetrating lube like wd-40? those two things make a world of difference with bolts that are constantly heated up and cooled down.

PB Blaster....for all your lubricating needs.....almost......

Killa · Jul 23, 2008

I just craw under the car again, what side is that bolt ? I put 17 and it wont fix, I put 19 and it kinda loose, i put 18 and it dint do nothing.

Black_02_GT · Jul 23, 2008

did you already undo all the other bolts? if so you might have to much tension on that one if it's hanging.. if that's the case try to tighten to other ones down and then work on that one that is giving you trouble

PB blaster like everyone has been saying and cause its a ford it requires force to get it to work with you lol

Killa · Jul 23, 2008

any one have any change remember what side is that bolt ? and if I want get a replacement where I can go to get that bolt ? since it already old and look rusty, im thinking get a replacement one, or ok to use that old bolt ? thanks

bolt should be fine unless you stripped it,
and i dont see how its not coming off.

if you've used the pb blaster on that bolt, (the one that is a bitch to get to due to the starter)
let it sit for a couple minutes. and it'll loosen up a bit, but your still gonna have to man power it if you doing it without an airgun.

tell me if i get all the right tool.

I bought all these from autozone, yesterday and today, yesterday im trying wb-CRAP40, with 1/2 10inch extenstion with 1/2 18 deep socket. it dont work out arite, so I went to autozone today again, pick up some more tool

PB Blaster, 1/2 sweil adapter, and 5 inch 1/2 extenstion,

so I got

PB Blaster
1/2 10 inch extention
1/2 18 inch deep well socket
1/2 Sweil adapter
1/2 wrench
BIG ASS 25 OR SOMETHING INCH 1/2 BREAKER BAR.

that sound good ? I just get under the car spay PB blaster it.

BAD NEW, MY O/R H PIPE IS NOT COMING TODAY, ONLY THE GOD DAM GASKET IS HERE, H PIPE IS BACK ORDER AND IT WILL BE HERE NEXT WED . But im going to try break the bolt loose today, so next week will be easy for me to take it out and put the H pipe on.

hmmm, the swivel i used had the socket built on it, then i used the extension.
cause i remember it wouldnt work with a swivel adapter and the socket.

I cant get the passenger side off, but I DO SAY PB BLASTER IS DA **** !! , I have hard time taking driver side bolt off yesterday, I spay some that stuff in, and it come out smooth, any way, I DONT KNOW WHAT SIDE IS PASSENGER, IT LOOK LIKE IT DIFFERENT SIDE, DONT FIX 17 OR 18 , IT wont get in all the way. **** it !!

mazen189 · Jul 23, 2008

BannonJr · Jul 24, 2008

I will get post pix up tomorrow.

One thing that bother me that, I have small hand, so I can reach it up their, I put to fix 1/2 18 deep well socket up on that bolt, and it wont go in all the way. I think that bolt have different size.

mixedbreed02gt · Jul 24, 2008

you got a torch? heat the bolt up till it starts to turn red, bet it comes off then.

if not use an air powered disc grinder and cut that beeyatch off.

COramprat · Jul 24, 2008

Get a medium dish socket. The deep socket hits the fenderwell and will not turn the nut due to limited clearance. The shallow will not fit over the bolt.

Stark77 · Jul 24, 2008

go to Harbor freight and buy an electric impact wrench - OR buy a 3ft breaker bar.

BannonJr · Jul 24, 2008

I dont think he's got room for a grinder, maybe torches though...if not you might have to get a set of bolt outs....

im saying, that look like some one is replace that bolt with different size, cause it seem to dont fix any socket I put on. I post a pix later on.
