This is my first post here so be gentle with me. I just ordered replacement trunk hinge pivots from JWest (last night actually) and since it is a beautiful day today I thought I would remove the old, wallowed out pivots. Since I haven't received them yet I am assuming I just need to drill out the spot welds. Anybody have any suggestions?

The deed is done.This was the last thing holding me back from an inspection and I will try to do that during lunch today. This will be this cars first time (legally) back on the road in maybe 10 years (possibly longer). I want to thank everyone for their advice and help. Great product James! I will do the drivers side eventually as it will no doubt fail, but at the moment, I need to hit the road. Thanks.
P.S. The trick to not chop off your fingers with the torsion bars is to buy a car that already has the trunk and busted hinge removed. That shock kit is looking pretty good. |
