Mine were easy. Some say it sucks. Tap stud with a hammer lightly if it sticks.

Yay UPS weren't douchebags today

I just He-Manned it when I had to pull my arms. Took the nut off and just gave them each a wiggle and a yank.

I tried everything, but I was worried I was going to break something. Broke down and bought a terminal puller. Surprisingly, Advanced Auto and Auto Zone do not sell them. Had to buy one off of Amazon.

Even with the puller, it was still a PITA, but I got them off.

Mmmm...tranny pan...its what's for dinner

Lift upper portion of wiper arm into the up position, hit stud with a hammer, wiggle lower half of wiper arm back and forth while pulling upward.

The hitting with the hammer creates a vibration effect to loosen the hold.

I tried all of that. I think I was worried about breaking something and did not use enough force. I still had a hard time getting them off with a puller though.

Pb blast first

 

[dmanns67]

Tried some WD-40, but nothing.

So, what mos do you have planned this weekend?

Mod check in!!

I ordered some LEDs finally and I may be doing some cold induction engineering as well

 

[Capote]

LEDs!!!!

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Light it up

 

[Sparky]

No mods this weekend. Mods are remaining mostly on hold for a while.

 

[AManders6]

Now that the Voy is back in running order, I can do a mod or two. Still have to try and keep my overactive mod big at bay until we close on our house

 

[Capote]

It's hard to keep the mod bug down, good luck bro

 

[dmanns67]

Saturday I am adding another diode to the BCM for 6 hi.

 

[AManders6]

Fortunately, I had a headlight go out this morning so that means I have a valid excuse to buy my HIDs

You also have the option of going with DFWWIZ's Cree LED headlights. $80 for a pair. Rated at 3600 lumen, which is 400 more lumen than HIDs.

Ahh yes, I have thought about those as well. I'll probably make some sort of decision this weekend and pull the trigger on something soon

Unless he starts selling the new version, I think he said they're 3200l

The new versions are 3600 lumen, old were 3200. I just talked to him last night and he is still waiting for the new crees to arrive from across the pond.

Oh okay I misunderstood him

 

[dmanns67]

I did not know about the new ones either until I read through his thread on TBSSowners.

 

[djthumper]

The ones he has now are 3600 L the new ones with only 2 CREE chips will drop down to 3200 L. His original sets were 3200 L

Just Doooo IT!

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Organizing the parts for future mods today

Making sure I know where all of my tools are for a mod that I would like to complete this weekend.

Ok, that makes sense. When I was emailing Kevin last night, he said the shipment he was waiting on from Hong Kong are the 3600 L Crees. I think the "new style" 3200 L Crees are stuck in customs.

Secrets don't make friends (Yeah yeah I know, friends make secrets)

I was doing some poking around on Ebay, and found a pretty good number of Cree LED kits in D2S/D2R format, that are rated at 3200L per side. Kevin needs to start selling these too for us projector heads.

 

[djthumper]

I bet if there is enough interest that Kev will source them.

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Heck yeah

 

[Capote]

My mod bug told me to buy strobes for my grill and 15 pattern LED strips for my footwells.....

Nice. Do you happen to have any links to what you seen on EBay?
