Re: BaggedGLI - The Rebuild

Already have the tool thanks. Lots more problems though.

Got my axles re-booted today and the hood painted.

Re: tie rods
The Canadian Tire tool works fine, use the smallest socket that is in the kit (it will be approx 1.5mm too big) then shim it with a washer/piece of metal. One twist and it will be loose. I just returned the tool to the Shawnessy location at like 6pm tonight, so if you need it snap it up before someone else does.

Haven't had warm enough weather to do the engine bay. Got my old subframe out though and the IDF one in less a sway bar.


It had been bent on the passenger side and was a fight to get the control arm bolted on. I don't know if they use a jig or not but either they don't and it's not straight or they took it out too soon and it shrank, was a ***** to get lined up and bolted in.


Trunk lid and bumper got repainted on the 25th, trunk lid i f'd up the bodywork wasnt quite perfect, bumper was painted shitty and rock chips everywhere.





Got my axles out, getting rebooted in 7 hours, dropping my hood off for paint in 5. Then I need to source new tie rod ends on a Saturday as well as find the special tool. 81 hours my car gets 3M'd and 99 hours I leave for Vegas.

Now, should I pull that grille out of the bumper and do a badgeless or keep that molded grill?

Re: BaggedGLI - The Rebuild

Honestly i liked the other bumper better.

I'm keeping the other bumper as well so i can swap between the two, no need to worry. This bumper WILL be run sometimes though, for the amount I paid and time I waited to FINALLY get the bumper here.

I actually like them, even with the smaller lip. Not too flashy at all which is awesome
