>tfw try to fix something in your car only to find 10 more

Working on my firebird. I ran over an suv (she slammed into back of car in front of her and I hit her) and wiped the front end off of my car. I ended up just getting another dd and storing the bird. I found a guy who has 4 fbodies and needs some cars moved around his property. Said he'll give me all the parts i need if I'll move some stuff around, may do that today.
Got the body bolts out of the old jeep and gonna replace them and the mounts.
Many projects that aren't cars also.

Need new control arm bushings on my shitbox, but the bolts are rusted to fuck because lolNewEnglandWinterCar. They've been soaking in PB blaster for 4 days and still won't budge. Shop wants $900 to do them, fuck that. I'm too poor.

My motorcycle needs a new rear tyre, but again, I'm poor and I don't want a shit tire that will evaporate in 2000 miles. I can't find Michelin City Grips in the size I need anywhere locally or online, so I've been riding my 50cc scooter.

I need to install a new kitchen faucet and drain pipe too.

get a torch and a air or electric impact hammer. Heat it up till it gets red hot then just bash the fucking bolts out with the hammer. Then sand down the hole and make sure you use anti seize

I have tried pnumatic impact, haven't tried heat yet. Will do.

Thanks

try and heat both the bolt and the housing its in... then hope and pray, fuck them new England cars.......

>try and heat both the bolt and the housing its in
No man you want to heat the area around the bolt. If you heat just the bolt, it expands and becomes more stuck.

>>17219888
I mean I just torch everything and beat on it till its free. but yeah if you heat the bolt too much itll just expand and wedge

Im an Infiniti dealership mechanic so I have projects daily. Started timing chains on a QX56 before I left work. Did an airbag recall and dash replacement on an M35 this morning and some other miscellaneous services.

Luxury car owners are spoiled little bitches.

Swapped some blue leather seats from a Lincoln Towncar. I think it was a 2002? Anyway, I swapped the seats out pretty easily, the bolt pattern was the same and everything. But because the seats are from a 2002 Towncar and my car is a 2011 CVPI, only one of the plugs under the seat were compatible.

There was a small brown plug that I was able to connect.
There was a larger grey plug that was not compatible with my wire harness.
There is also a small yellow plug that my Crown Vic wire harness didn't have anything to hook up to. I assume that is for the seat warmers? I dont care about seat warmers though.

I am able to adjust the seats such as move them forward and back and adjust the angling. but I cant recline the back or adjust the lumbar support. I assume the grey plug that I couldn't hook up was power for the pack of the seat?

I have been trying to find some sort of wire diagram to show what wires did what for the town car so I can take the grey plug off those seats and splice in the plug I cut from from my old Crown Vic seats but I cant find any info on it.

Have to replace hood and bumper after some jackass brake checked me. Pure hit and run too when he saw that I had a passenger in the front seat. Not to mention, I just got the car repainted. Fucking cunt.

>brake checked you
>you couldn't stop in time
You were following too close and he meant to illustrate that point to you. It looks like he succeeded and also you suck at driving.

WHY/HOW

Trying to replace tail lights with led version but the new led tail lights seem to be missing their weather stripping and i didnt notice.

I can try replacing the old housing with the led internals but if i do that and fuck up then ill have NO working lights so im too scared to do it

Should i man up and do it o? Is this something an auto electrician can do?

You're both right and wrong. Heating the bolt will usually break its rust, allowing you to turn it.
