Credit to Infosecdad for finding it on Amazon

 

It says unavailable today, but it was like $110 back when it was being discussed.

 

 

 

 

Yeap. Unavailable on Amazon. I checked and there is plenty of identical sets on Ebay, search for "27Pc Universal Press and Pull Sleeve Kit Bush Bearing Removal Insertion Tool Set". I bought this one just because I could zoom and check that the nuts do have bearings on them as in the original one on Amazon:

difference between shop and diy. I soaked mine in pb blaster every couple hours for a couple of days, then used a lot of muscle, er, beer on a breaker bar.

 

Yeah I tried to DIY it to no avail. I soaked it in PB daily for about 2 weeks, tried to torch it, then used the socket with a hose clamp over it (to stop it from spreading) like you had advised.. but it wouldn't budge.

 

Maybe if I could get the car off the ground high enough for said long-ass breaker bar (and beer) it might work.

School has a lift, so it was easier. Still a pain tho.

I started installing my folding mirrors that I've had for like 2 years. The set I bought isn't heated so I'm swapping my heated glass over. I also bought some 10 pin connectors that use the same pins as oem to swap over the wires easily.

Question for those that have done this, do you have tips on getting the two new wires through the door? I hate cutting holes. I'm not sure if I hate cutting holes more than removing the rubber covers and fishing wires through though, lol.

I can get my hands on a set of powerfolds with heated glass thats wired into the defrost button. I haven't decided if I should get them because they're face-lift and I have 05 gt. Were your mirrors face-lift and how was the finished fitment? I'd love to have them but I'm worried about function

Almost out of surgery on the rear. Thought the repair was pretty minor, but that looks like at minimum 5-6 hours of shop body work to my amateur eye.

 

Pretty sure the front end is all painted and new madrig scoop is in the mail.

Just found out my car has to go under the knife... Car was sold to me certified, But it left the lot without a working horn and throwing P1446. $1500 CAD repair, and if I want to keep my warranty, I have to go through a certified shop... Plus since it's a safety item, the dealer I bought it from gets to pay. All I wanted was a car :lol:

 

Hopefully I get the car soon...

Ugh, I have to get this done on my wagon.... Hopefully this summer I will have time to deal with it and similar issue on my wife's Tribeca on passenger side and son's 2010 OB - on both sides.

 

 

I am thinking about buying paint from Automotivetouchup.com and just doing it myself. Quotes I got this far aren't encouraging, and on the top of it we did pay 1.5 years ago to get the rust addressed on the 2010 OB rear wheel wells. It lasted less than a year. at that rate I am willing to try the repair myself, can't be much worse.

An update on 2010 OB rear brake lines:

 

Service guys at the dealer gave me 2 quotes: ~$450 to patch the rear lines with new sections, and ~$1400 to have rear break lines replaced completely, starting from the engine bay.

 

I asked them to do the full replacement, and also replace all 4 brake hoses. Talked to service manager and told him that I will be talking to SOA about pinching in for some of the repair cost but regardless of how that will go they will get paid in full. We know each other since ~2007 and he's been always great.

 

Called SOA and despite car being uhm, slightly out of warranty at 10 years and 205K miles they agreed to provide $500 towards the repairs. I did explain to them that I see this as safety issue, not maintenance and everything else was always paid by me without problems, but this one was different. To their credit they didn't argue at all and the whole thing took them less than a day to get confirmed and coordinated with the dealer.

 

Picked the car few days ago, parts took a bit of time to arrive. Nice firm pedal and really looking how much work service guys have done I am glad I didn't try to skimp and asked the lines to be fully replaced.

 

TL;DR: Service guys and the dealer replaced rear brake lines completely from the engine bay rearwards, and SOA agreed to provide $500 towards the repairs. Car drives great, owner is happy. Communication is the key.

Posted this in Max's thread about jacks but duplicating here because more traffic and Father's day coming:

 

 

Just ordered the "QUICKJACK BL-7000SLX 7,000 lbs. Capacity Portable Car Lift Bundle Package with 12pc adapter set and wall hangers" from HomeDepot. $1450.99 with free shipping. Long ship time but I am in no hurry, still have my Craftsman jack stands.

 

 

Wish they'd be here for 02 sensor replacement and tranny fluid change on Tribeca but oh well.

I almost laughed when I read that, removing the quarter alone is usually at least 5 hours, and it takes good techs almost all that time. Labor times on quarter replacements are like 11hrs for something small and like 20 on full size suvs. That's removing all the bits and bobs and putting everything back in after paint.

 

I've never met a tech who didn't hate replacing quarters. And I've talked to idk 50+ about it.

The guy doing it, didn't want to do it. I'm very close with his family and he's very skilled, but retired and I could tell not happy with the thought of it. I'm wondering how much the bill is going to change from when we first talked, I'm guessing it's gone up.

 

I was told it's typically around $500-$800 for that repair and assumed that was quoted for about 5-6 hours of body work.

 

 

Also, yesterday on FB marketplace I grabbed both Company 23 gear wrenches and the gear lock for $35 total shipped... Not bad. Any Pitt locals that want to borrow are more than welcome

With painting them? I'd be happy to pay that and be done. Unfortunately on 2010OB that was about how much we paid to the shop and again it didn't last even one year.

Well I have not done much to the legacy, but it hot AF here so I am driving my daily 2011 Taurus for now, want to give the legacy the air cooled garage treatment till the heat dies out a bit. I will have 2 DDs soon once we get an SUV for my wife. She has a legacy also.

 

bought some lights from Febreze Mee, I think they will set the car off nice.

 

would love a carbon lip spoiler and roof spoiler :)

Already in the group, last ditch thing is to ask in there because of the warranty (it has strange stipulations, and fails to mention the use of proper fuel, so in theory I can get away with blowing up the car by putting regular unleaded in). It's also tied with a falsified safety certificate, so, this situation is pretty screwed up. But I ain't giving up the car yet
