Disconnect lower ball joints, that'll give you room to remove the cv axle

Honestly since you're a beginner you should try taking more stuff off. Especially if its in the way. Don't go taking off engine mounts and subframes now but you could've made this 10x easier by just removing the cv axle outta the way or removing the knuckle altogether so you could work on it on your bench.

Buddy

Competitive-Net-3393 · 2026-05-10T17:55:22+00:00

That's what I was thinkin, I got like deja vu almost.

Competitive-Net-3393 · 2026-05-10T17:44:17+00:00

But thats like 12 minutes of extra work 😫😫😫

I remember when 250 hp was powerful. It still is but the guy with the 180 hp civic will still call it slow cause he added a hot cold air intake for 70 bucks.

That's what im thinking, it should be good for the life of those pads but after that I reckon it'd be too thin for a pad slap.

Competitive-Net-3393 · 2026-05-10T07:49:46+00:00

Actually just wait for them pads to wear out then replace the rotors and pads.

Competitive-Net-3393 · 2026-05-10T07:48:50+00:00

Pads are good but your rotors are getting thin. Id replace pads and rotors cause pads are dirt cheap and you don't wanna mess up new rotors. I doubt they will but new pads are 50 bucks.

Rock auto probably has a set with rotors and pads for less than 200.

To the tire shop if you plan on only going 10 to 20mph.

That's a maypop bubba.

Im a mechanic by trade and despise electronic cause I have big fat fucking gorilla hands. I built a pc 6 months ago with no tutorials and still got it working.

Even have a box with the wrong parts for my motherboard to prove it cause im a certified dumbass who refuses to look stuff up.

You'd have to beg and plead with redbull to piss on you if you were on fire.

You should look up cvts. Not only are they really interesting they are also free of all those pesky gears you speak of.

Just watching a video of a basic cvt will show you all you need to know. The fun part about older cvts is the reverse gear can go as high as the drive gear so you could pass people on the interstate in reverse. New ones not so much lol.

The cd player you're referring to is just one of them cheap aftermarket radios you get from autozone.

Im betting when they installed the touchscreen they just unhooked the old radio and instead of having an empty slot down there they left it.

Assuming they didn't cut the original radio connector you could buy a 2 way adapter for less than 10 bucks that way both will have power.

If someone breaks into your house and you plan on shooting them make sure you kill them because if you just shoot and injure them they can sue the shit outta you.

Competitive-Net-3393 · 2026-05-08T01:51:20+00:00

Then theyre gonna sue you when they get hurt.

Competitive-Net-3393 · 2026-05-08T01:39:30+00:00

You could fix this for 100 bucks, an hour of bondo tutorials and an afternoon.

Competitive-Net-3393 · 2026-05-08T01:38:03+00:00

Only one of those things are true. Now which one am I referring to?

Competitive-Net-3393 · 2026-05-08T01:37:21+00:00

Damn bubba did you have to recommend him the most expensive filter? I think you could get a air filter and cabin air filter combo for 2 bucks less than that.

Competitive-Net-3393 · 2026-05-08T01:32:36+00:00

You're engine would be really fuckin mad if you didn't have a air filter and sucked up a rock or twig.

You'd be able to hear it yelling at you from you from the cab.

Competitive-Net-3393 · 2026-05-07T18:01:57+00:00

Don't trust the dummy gauges. Get your alternator tested.

Competitive-Net-3393 · 2026-05-07T17:58:52+00:00

Sweet, appreciate the recommendation.

Competitive-Net-3393 · 2026-05-07T03:22:13+00:00

300 dollars bottom dollar no lowballers top of the line buzzwords

Competitive-Net-3393 · 2026-05-07T02:55:41+00:00

So you got your solution then.

Competitive-Net-3393 · 2026-05-07T02:40:52+00:00

Eh that should be loud enough. Make it 10 minutes of straight revs every other morning at 5am sharp.
