Get a 3/8" deep drive socket set from Total Tools. My set starts from 8mm up to 17mm.

have you tried using pliers?

have you tried using pliers?

please guys NEVER use plies on bolts or nuts ! rounds them quick smart.



Please use a bit of WD40 or similar to loosen the threads from grit - then use a deep 6 (single hex) sided piece for maximum grip.

Only hardware store close to me is bunnings so I hope they have it.. I tried using pliers.. sorta rounded a bit off but I stopped lol

Thanks all

I got a cheap set of deep sockets from Supercheap.
If you can't find a set elsewhere, have a look there.

[Chriskoss]

Got one.. after going to 4 different places.. 2 bunnings stores after I called up the 1st 1 asking if they have it.. they said yes.. so I go.. they said nah we dnt.. go to the megastore.. I go there.. nah wtf r they tlkn bout we dnt have it but buy the set for 400 bucks.. lol

Anyways.. how do I get access to the LHS bracket to bolt on the window.. I can only reach the right one.. has anybody put a window on before :S

use single hex sockets ;) use and extention

[hooyn]

ok so i got this real stubborn bolt on one of the heat shields covering the exhaust manifold, tried lubing it and coming back later and using a socket on it. the socket got rounded ..................... tried spanners and all that aswell with extension bars. this little %**$ just wont budge.

any ideas ?

this is insane. its right above the turbo too so all the heat its exposed to has really caked it in.

[hooyn]

woo so i let it cake in a bit more and got hex spanner with extension, came off !

so i had to do the same thing for 3 more bolts to get the heat shield off, checked the turbo actuator and there was nothing wrong !

now i gotta keep trying to figure out where this annoying fking rattle is coming from !?!?!??!
