Finished the front endlinks. Moved my nice Kenwood head unit from my truck into the MP3 and fixed a rear speakers that the previous owner screwed up. Anyone know of a decent one sub box? I have 2 12inch subs but I only want to use one so I don't throw away the whole trunk space.

I want the washer squirters. Paypal?

Yea I think this is in the wrong place. This need to be moved to the MP3 and P5 sections. It's just that there was no MP3 How-to So I put it here. Moderators? Admins? help :)

Done!

Bottom :( waaa waaaaaah But really what kind of side to side force do you think there will be. it is attached to the shock on the rear wheel. it should in theory only be going up and down. Maybe we can figure out something at a later date. I need to get my car on the road. It shall be tonight...

No those brakets are mounted to the outside bolts of the cross member very near the shock. They go as far out as you can get :) Check out the pics on this pages. it is what racing beat and mazda wanted to do orginally and it is what inspired AXR and my buddy and I...

If it is on an MP3 then no there are little plates welded where the brakets mount. I would just go ahead and get the AXR brakets or make your own version.

The orings aren't there as spacers. they are to help seal the heim joint and to act as a control for movement of the endlink. The funnel shaped metal washer is there as the spacer and it is only funnel shaped so it would hold in the oring. You could use a spacer like you did no problem. BUT I...

Finished building my custom Clunk Fix brakets. they use the stock brackets and I'm putting in an AWR bushing. I'll get more pics once the paint dries and they are installed. BTW that clean metal primer can took a crap all over my hand and didn't spray so much as just spill out of the top...

Ok that was the trick. I used the funnel washers and O-rings that I got from AWR and it went together so well. I started out measuring the stock endlink. It was 10 1/2 inches from center to center. Then took into account the length of the heim joints (they arn't ball joints just FYI I know...

Rebuild my brakes and am in the middle of writing a how to: How-To Complete Brake Service Bought a new set of Tires. Yokohama AVID H4S, a decent set of all seasons. Hopefully I'll get it all together this up coming week. :)

I contacted AWR to see if I could buy just the funnel spacer and o-ring and have yet to hear back. If I can that would be hot :) EDIT Just talked to Tony at AWR and they are getting me a set of the funnel washers and heavy duty o-rings. The washers are 4 something a pop so with shipping that...

Not Nice.... I don't like the clearance over the lip of the stock tokico mounting tab and the rubber o-rings I'm using are just flattening and squshing out. :( I need to change something.

Bleeding the Brakes. Now really I can't do to great of job explaining how to bleed your brakes with just pictures. It helps to watch a video of someone doing it do a quick search on youtube. Now keep in mind if you just rebuilt the calipers then there is NO fluid in the calipers and little in...

Removing the Rear Rotors Again Same as the front. There are two bolts holding the shoe to the hub. Remove those with a braker bar or two box end wrenches. Then rock the rotor forward over the Lug bolts. Now go get the rotor resurfaced with your front ones.

Removing the Rear Brake Pads The brake pads like the front are just sitting in rails on the shoe. Just slide them away from the rotor on both sides.

Rebuilding the Rear Caliper Start by removing the bolt that covers the parking brake adjustment. This can be done by one person but two would be helpfull. Use an allen wrench and turn clockwise while putting air pressure in the banjo bolt hole. Remember to put some rags in the caliper to...

Removing the Rear Caliper Again Loosen the bolt holding the caliper to the shoe. Leave it a few turns in so you can loosen and remove the banjo bolt. Now remove the banjo bolt and brake cable. then turn the caliper out. Also don't forget to place your drip pan under your work. Now pull...
