edrach Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 Pic are up the ones on the rust inthe rearwell and shock tower.Good luck with getting those bolts out to replace the shock. Soak them good with a decent rust penetrant for about a week. The bolts entend through the threaded portion about a half inch...soak them from that side. And take it slow and easy when you remove them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkDave Posted May 14, 2009 Author Share Posted May 14, 2009 edrach, Is wd40 good or should I use something else?? and what about the rust should I cut it out and use sheetmetal? Most of the shock tower is gone to, should I try to rebuild the tower? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the shock tower is gone to, should I try to rebuild the tower? wd-40 is crap unless you are trying to dry stuff. use PB Blaster or seafoam deep creek. both are great for what you will be needing. they can be found at just abou8t any auto parts store.

hatchsub Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 PB-blaster is better than WD40 by far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
