Is there missing paint or rub marks, or are you just hearing it?

Putting a feeler out there... would anyone local be interested in a prototype aluminum hc rear bumper with winch?

 

Let's do it.

 

I don't normally post here, but saw this and was wondering who's truck that is? Gotta love tweakers.

That music is perfect.

 

Sometimes I make this shit too hard. All I had to do was bolt the intake back on. I was on the home stretch until.....






Yeah, those are 2 bolts that fell down the intake and are sitting on top of the valve currently.

 

I did that to the intake of the turbos of an RS6 - dropped MAF connector clips down the rabbit holes. buddy of mine connected a vacuum with a narrow attachment and taped to the hose and stuck it down there got all the clip crap out and then we reassembled it to make sure we got all of it.

 

Can you reach them with an extendable magnet?

 

It would have to be on a flexible handle and about minimum 1' long to reach all the way in there. I need to go through the intake runner below the plenum or remove the intake that I just sealed and put new gaskets on, then I'm looking right at the bolts. I tried my grabber claw wand thingy but it doesn't twist and flex enough to be able to grab them. I'm thinking magnet on a string or the intake has to come off if that's unsuccessful. I tried a magnet attachment on the endoscope I borrowed from @Usethe2nd but it couldn't get a hold of a bolt.

 

So something like this?

 

Shit.... It's like you're reading my mind....



Another tool paid for compliments of my work. Went to the local napa for some fuel filters and picked it up on their account.

 

Sweet! Good luck!

 

You could also seal a small tube to a shop vac hose with pantyhose or a rag on the end and suck it up that way. Shit or just suck it into the shop vac and collect it with a magnet

 

I planned on pulling the plugs and making some sort of attachment for my shopvac to clean out the cylinders. Just to make sure there isn't anything in there before I fire it up.

 

Since nobody wanted this dang this it’s going on the truck. Trail gear rear fully coated in line x up for grabs. 400$

 

Edit

 

Welp.. it’s on now
