    Damper Fork Pinch Bolt Snapped

    I can guarantee its not cross threaded, seeing as the last person to tighten that bolt was myself. However, I'm most likely at least partially at fault, as I was probably a little overzealous when I tightened it. That, combined with Canadian winters having a go at it over the last several...

    Damper Fork Pinch Bolt Snapped

    [/URL][/IMG][/URL][/IMG] Hey everyone. I was in the process of replacing my struts, when Christmas came a little early for me and I was gifted with this problem. I've tried everything to remove the fork from the bottom of the damper so I could take it to my local shop and have it drilled...

    Gear oil leak after axle replaced

    Not true. I've replaced axles on my old 4th gen, as well as a friends CRX, and a Ponitac Grand Prix, and none of those sprung a leak after. But for $10, and 5 minutes of labor, you can be sure I'll be replacing them every time from now on.

    Gear oil leak after axle replaced

    Ok thanks for the feedback. I only took it to the shop because I didn't have a garage to do it in myself, and its too cold/wet in the winter to do it outside. Now that the weather is warming up, I can do this myself. Any tips on replacing the seal, aside from not scratching the metal it sits...

    Gear oil leak after axle replaced

    The car originally went to the shop because the axle boot was ripped, and the CV joint was clicking when I turned. There was no leak prior to bringing my car in. Is a blown seal something they would see when replacing the axle, or is it one of those things that only becomes obvious when fluid...

    Gear oil leak after axle replaced

    Usually only a bit comes out, just make sure you top it off after, with the car parked on a level surface. It can be a **** to top off, which is why I want to stop my leak :(

    Gear oil leak after axle replaced

    Hey guys. I recently had my passenger side axle replaced at a local shop. I just crawled underneath my car for the first time since having the work done, and I noticed a significant amount of oil around where the axle enters the transmission, as well as on the surrounding suspension...
