Need to replace the upper and lower ball joints on both sides on my Tahoe. Anyone have any tips or tricks to make it go easier? I do all my own maintenance so I'm not a complete idiot. Going to buy the ball joint press.

Don't some stores like Autozone have free specialty tool rentals if you buy the related parts from them? You can check at their website for their local store policy.

This OP, rent them for free, a lot easier. And ball joint replacment is a fucking bitch. Like the other anon said, use a breaker bar, pd blaster, etc. Also make sure you use the adapter the ball joint press comes with, makes it a lot easier. Just take your time. Make sure the ball joints are going in straight or else youre gonna havr a really bad time. Get extra cotter pins because they're fucking fragile. Also when you are applying pressure the the balll joint to pop it out, make sure you stand back, they tend to literally pop out and can go pretty far.( i have a small scar on my forhead as proof.)

The rotor can be different shapes, but most of the shapes you listed would be too complex.

Anyone else annoyed by the EU flag on the licence plates? They do not stand out in any way and furthermore it makes the plate look overall dull (I'd rather have the emblem-less communist-era plates personally).

I've seen a few people put stickers on them with the coat of arms or something. Do you think slightly painting that part would be illegal? Like making a small decal?

i've got them on mine and i don't really care, and we're even leaving the EU

they're not compulsory (at least in the UK) so you can do what you like with that bit, snap it off if you want
>>
>>16359808

It's never a legal requirement to have the EU flag on your car, even if you're driving abroad. All you need is a GB sticker. No way am I having an EU flag in my car.

Also:
>Non-Standard lettering
>Incorrect font size

Enjoy your fine.

Just noticed they're German plates, disregard my point about the fine. I fucked up.

Hello lads
My sister recently drove this nice scratch into my car. I know the paint is scratched, but also the fender has a bump there. I have bought paint to fix it up a little, but what can I do about the bump? I saw something with hot water here once, anybody can tell me something about that?

In all honesty, and memes aside, how reliable are the 2012 and newer Jeep Wranglers with the 3.6 V6? I've been strongly considering buying one, so I'm looking for answers preferably from people who have had first hand experience with their reliability or lack thereof.

proper offroader then a defender if europe or original jeep if US , for an 4x4 squashy on roader then any station wagon or estate with 4wd will work. 4x4s are just rollover death traps on the road.

If this car is uncomfortable to drive, steers like a cargo ship, etc sucks all around, why do the rich mommies like to drive it? Is it just because they like the looks?

Okay, I agree that it has one of the best off-road systems and it is capable like hell by 99.5% of the owners won't take it off-road.

OP here.

Sure me too but it has become a status symbol and MB saw this is as an opportunity to increase it's price like anything. The base g550 is like $125k. Wish they sold the G350(overseas base model) here in the states.
