Kyle......
Theres a few ways to get those fuckers off..... One.... take a cut off and turn the phillips into a common... if the common strips with a impact driver as Ransom suggested you have two options from there... drill the heads off or as Gunny suggested, weld a nut onto the totally fucked up head and use a socket to take them off. While Mazdatrix is usually totally useless and talking to them makes we want to punch kittens, the one good FAQ they have is bearing replacement. You can get the new bearings AND races for ~$60 for both sides (at least that's what I remember my cost was locally, I could be wrong) and then you just knock the old races out and replace EVERYTHING... they basically come out just like new.... good shit... I didn't look at the pics, but unless the hubs are bent and or cracked, no worries, they will be like new once the bearings are replaced. BTW - respond to mah PM!!! |
If those are mine they are off a 91 too mang.

Also... MY BAD! I guess i forgot to check my internet mailz :001_005: Quote:
Another separate question... is there a good non standard cleaning chemical that you use to clean up old parts... like rotors and housings? |

Use some kind of oil to help with the cutting. You can use WD-40, Liquid Wrench, or even regular engine oil if that's all you have laying around. Quote:
Use Chem-Dip. I noticed our local Walmart started to carry this. Do NOT get this on your skin, so be very careful how you handle this stuff. For housings, I like to use a water-based cleaner like Zep purple industrial cleaner - at Home Depot. I also like the Oil Eater cleaner that Costco used to carry, but this stuff isn't too easy to find nowadays. I find the other cleaners like Simple Green, Super Clean, and Purple Power to be TOO WEAK. :( -Ted |

I just scoured mazdatrix and corksport (whats left of it anyway) for all the brake, suspension and all that fun stuff underneath the car. I've made what i think is a pretty complete list... I'm pretty excited to get to working. I haven't been excited about working on the car like this for a while.:party: |
To clean the hubs and dust covers makes it easier.
They are fun Or haunt yer dreams whichever....:rofl: |
