To be fair, maybe there’s already a hole there too? Lol. Sorry OP. I feel your pain.

I would think so. By going in from above like that I could get an electric die grinder on the bolt easily and have it out in 5 minutes. It really depends on what you have available to you as far as tools. I’ve had my harbor freight die grinder for a while and it’s been very reliable. Used it all...

You can also cut a hole in the floor of the cruiser to get a better view of it. A little extreme, but it depends on how much time you want to spend on your back with your arm twisted up in the rear shock area

I had the same issue. Ended up being a fuse. I can’t remember what one it was, I’ll try to dig up my thread. edit. probably not the same issue. I forgot, my main issue was the speedo not working. This was after doing some work on the shifter. I had no gear indication at all, and once in Drive...

it’s rough for sure. Most of that will flake off with a needle scaler. Will suck to work on, but if it’s a hit you can’t take, run new brake lines, fix the shock, clean it up a bit and sell or just run the hell out of it on local trails that aren’t hard to hike out of. Lol.

Uhhh yeah. Very impressive. I’ve been working on metal as a hobby for a while and I’m a little jealous of how you knocked that bumper out.

Welding and metal work is quite a rabbit hole to go down. I started a few years ago and have collected a lot of tools in the process. My main limiting factor is time at the moment. I can do plenty of stuff, just don’t have the time to do it. A bumper as your first project is a significant...

I did a whole front end rebuild on my 100. All lower bushings were rusted in place. I tried every documented method of pressing them out. Heat, PB blaster over the course of two weeks. Finally had to cut them out. They were probably just fine, but it was a “while I was in there” thing. If I...

Yeah sway bar can come out without taking anything else apart. Just takes a minute to rotate it and thread it out.

I make stickers for fun. I have a few MUD inspired ones. I keep meaning to set up a vendor account and offer these. Just don’t know if it would be worth it.

Wheels are sold, just the last couple of things left.

Good. That’s better than worrying about windshield seals and what not. I’d be relieved if I were you.

Dang. I wasn’t receiving notifications when people replied to this thread. I’m sending some PMs now.

My bad, I skimmed your original post.
