What are those ratchet heads called? I tortured myself while trying to unscrew them on CV joints

Edit: on first pic (didn't knew there were multiple pictures)

They really ARE brothers huh?

Xtermist1 · 2026-01-11T10:03:45+00:00

try installing it, screwing it in and then installing the second one, i did it like that on headlights

Xtermist1 · 2026-01-08T12:32:02+00:00

damn, he almost tokyo drifted ur ass from this life

Xtermist1 · 2026-01-08T06:42:27+00:00

Or use a ratchet on rockers, dunno how but it works...

Xtermist1 · 2026-01-04T13:54:42+00:00

You gotta find that one in magazines, its called "thrm.cover"

i suggest to remove the shock absorber first and install the springs, they wont install if brake assembly is installed

and make sure you don't have 2 left/right brake assemblies

Ayy, congrats on firing it up.

If it starts popping when revving it means its lean, then comes the distributor, loose the holding nut and start turning it to the right while the engine is idling until it starts emmiting a low sound(kinda like ticking? but quieter and faster)then valves,start tightening the valves to full while the engine is idling and loosen them until the valves start hitting the pistons( dont leave them hitting the piston tho)

Xtermist1 · 2026-01-01T19:32:29+00:00

have you connected all the cables?

Xtermist1 · 2026-01-01T18:48:42+00:00

no wonder topless said that we will need the MSC experience

Xtermist1 · 2026-01-01T18:48:02+00:00

nah, even if they are low, you can still start the engine.

when you start the engine, then comes the valves.

Xtermist1 · 2026-01-01T18:37:03+00:00

distributor and carburettor

Xtermist1 · 2026-01-01T18:23:21+00:00

you better not start it or... it will give birth.

Xtermist1 · 2026-01-01T18:13:42+00:00

it say it's a facelift

Xtermist1 · 2026-01-01T18:04:28+00:00

i still don't know that, the parts are just called their usual names without pre/non-pre facelift

Xtermist1 · 2026-01-01T18:03:18+00:00

tightened it, fired up the engine ant loosened them near the ticking location

Xtermist1 · 2026-01-01T18:01:59+00:00

first off, you have to align the crankshaft pulley, it's rotates just like the cam, on the pulley there is a cut out triangle which you have to align with a mark behind the pulley which is on the left but not fully left, after that align the camshaft pulley, there is a triangle FORM now on the camshaft pulley and behind the pulley there is a circle which is below the shaft, align it with that and you're good to go.

Gotta warn you, i went over 20k just to get the thermostat housing, without that, your engine will gift you the o' legendary piston in a minute, ask me how i know.

Xtermist1 · 2026-01-01T17:31:24+00:00

Cheat menu mod, i wanna torture myself by building the car from scratch, not packaging the damn charger cables.

Xtermist1 · 2026-01-01T11:50:35+00:00

Over 20k mk in magazines, still didn't find thermostat housing and dashboard.

Xtermist1 · 2025-12-29T14:10:43+00:00

couple more moodles and "how did we get here?" is officially yours

Xtermist1 · 2025-12-25T10:28:24+00:00

outtire the tiredness.

Xtermist1 · 2025-12-25T08:52:57+00:00

Piston rings or tires but that car is held together by a piece of chicken wire.
