Another random DD? I wish this popped up before the hatch. I want a del sol so badly. haha. and it is probably all stock and untouched.

93 Del Sol $825.00 OBO

 

eh...the body looks beat to **** on that sol though...

 

LOL you haven't seen good enough pictures of the hatch then. haha.

 

For the rears, jack it up and spin the wheel, shoud spin smoothly. If it is hanging up ebrake is too tight, I'd be suprised if it needs new shoes unless someone drove with the ebrake up.

As for the front you are going to have to either get a hold of the stud behind the knuckle with a vice grip in an attempt to hold it or try and pounding it in to the hub to see if you can get it to catch enough to zip the lug off. Otherwise it'd be time to start hacking. Best bet is to try and take the whole knuckle off so you have plenty of access.

 

Well I think the noise is coming and going in the rear. I'll keep an ear open for it of course. I thought replacing the rear shoes seemed odd as I have never had done this, or heard of doing this.

For the front, I looked around some more and found that a one of the cheesy ebay lug nuts backed out slightly. Even worse, it stripped and damaged the stud and the inside threading of the lug nut. Threw the lug nut out.

So far I was able to get two removed, both studs have damaged threads and the other two seem to be on a extremely tight, so I am assuming they will break. LOL 4 replacement wheels studs and a set of OEM lug nuts (which will be put onto the EK, and the old ones on the EK will be put onto the EG) are in store I guess.

I really think that is the big issue here since I can physically move the wheel back and forth slightly while it is sitting on the ground.

 

Well, I was right. I bought some wheel studs and lug nuts while at work today and just in time, too. The vibrations in the wheels got worse throughout the ride home. Just as I thought, a wheel stud/ebay lug nut snapped off while driving.

Pulled the wheel and brakes off and replaced the wheel studs today. Rides perfectly once again. I still need to find a clean full set of OEM lug nuts in order to get the rest of the eBay lug nuts in the trash.

I'll have to take pics of the car and all of the things which have changed on it since I bought it soon.

 

Yea pics are always nice I always lack that in all my threads...

 

Yea, I'll be bored tonight, so I am sure I will snap some.

 

Well? There aint much more of "tonight" left in today and I see no new pics! Slackers, sheesh!

Jk, jk...

 

Amber corners. eBay specials fit nicely.


Del Sol Seats from my EK. Traded the BOMZ seats for red stripe Del Sol seats in better condition which are going in the EK.
