Just don't get too wild when tightening stuff up.. Some things need to be torqued down, and others are weak.. Just use common sense..

common...what?



j/k...I'll look over the torque specs in the haynes manual

you can adjust the torque on air tools.

I prefer assembly by hand, otherwise air tools is

way to go, once you use good air tools you are spoiled.



By the way, a 1/4 air ratchet is the tool to have when

working on the bodies of a car, doesnt have enough power to

break anything and makes assembling and dissassembling bumpers, tailights, fenders,and other parts a breeze, especially for those long bolts.

maybe your thinking about using a impact gun on custom rims?

yeah, I figured the air wrench will help more with disassembly, and I could assemble by hand, just to keep the "oh ****" factor down.







so I decided to go get the wrench, and borrow a compressor. Then my wife says, "hey, you're going to buy a compressor someday, might as well get one today." man, I love her.



so I got the wrench, compressor, hose, tire filler w/gauge, but couldn't try it out because it was 10 pm. Tonight should see more progress.

ALAYS SPRAY THE THREADS OF THE FASTENERS YOU ARE REMOVING WITH PB BLASTER OR KROIL https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683894.gif

yeah, I've got a can of pb blaster nearby at all times. what I didn't do was spray it yesterday, so it could sit all today https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub..._DIR#>/sad.png .



Any other tips are appreciated, as like I've stated above, much of what I do is for the first time.

yOU DO HAVE A PROPER 10mm FLARE-NUT WRENCH FOR THE BRAKE LINES:CORRECT?

IF NOT HOME DEPOT HAS A DECENT ONE

I actually just bought a small flare wrench set like 2 days ago, while trying to change my wife's fuel filter. It didn't work, but now I have the correct wrenches! Will I need that for where the line from the hub attaches to the line from the car? I was wondering about that point.
