'How-To' Help and Guides
« on: Jul 07, 2003, 09:40:16 AM »
Done any automotive repairs on your rig? ( ::) )

Then let us know what was involved, what tools were needed, how many hours it took, and any additional notes or advise that would make it eaiser for the 'first-timer'!


Example:

Subject: Installing a Clutch
Message: I recently removed and replaced my clutch. I needed a #mm socket, a large sledge hammer, three shovels, etc......
It was rather easy. It took me 3 hours - mainly because I made a few mistakes.
First off, I forgot to remove the shifters and had the trans half way out. It turns out that if you remove this first, then it will save you about 30mins and three broken fingers. Next, you will need to..............
.......and then torque those last bolts to 40 ft-lbs. and your done!
-Installer



And of course if you've had simular experiences or installs, please reply to the message with your own experiences and advise. Soon this will be a huge database for working on and modifing our rigs!

Regards,
BigMike
