again, check PFL FL differencies. They fixed weak subframe mount point on FL chassis. And check how metal looks on my video. You would do more bad than good by trying to reinforce it.
i had exactly the same thing when doing the parking brake cables, i couldnt get them out, couldnt get them in, and when i had them in, they had to be the other way around. I had to do it on the ground in the rain.
My E85 is destined for this treatment. I'm buying everything second hand, then refurbishing, so I can replace the entire assembly in one. I don't have a garage and it's my main car for now so, this is the way 😊 Great work though man! Kudos to you 👌
400+ performance with 100 volume. If you planning sand blasting maybe that's not an overkill then. I mean in video it was one time job with not much of a rust.
Just a piece of advice. The bearing must not be hit with a hammer during installation. They harden the surface of the bearing. The surface may be damaged. You can only squeeze. By the way, precise work.
The same happened to me with febi rear diff bush, leaked out in first 5 seconds of installation 😅 - I send it back and get refund, once leaking don't think is a good idea to be used anymore...
Awesome work and guideline! 👏I'm doing exactly the same work right now on my E46. A good hint would be to finish refurbished suspension parts with dry wax to make them last longer 😃.
Looks great, keep doing more videos. It’s worth the effort. I’ll be working on my 330ci this weekend. Your example looks cool. Respect from England. ❤👍🏼🏁😊
It was one of the main reason to start this job. You can check chassis conditions on the video. It is ideal. Because of that i leave it as it is. Usually this disease comes for prefacelift cars
@@mekanic3769 i have may 2000 330ci and it was propper fooked, it had cracks then someone welded plates on it, few years later close to 40 spotwelds holding RACP were blown off and detached. I cut up most of the car from inside like onion and repair all cracks, spotwelds and build crossmenber / strutbar from 60x40 and 50x30 steel tubes connecting mounting points to framerails and re done plates on under. Bit angry at myself i was sucker for PFL coupes and deemed FL ones not pretty enough
I have not seen more professional guy on the internet so far.......very very detailed and high standard of professionalism. I see it clearly that your standard is Perfection. Bravo. Great Work.

Yes its universal, i used something like this. ozon.by/product/vr50093-universalnyy-nabor-dlya-vypressovki-i-zapressovki-saylentblokov-26pr-vertul-1251826077/ we are in CIS region
Finally someone who's unlocked the mystery of DIYing a 188K diff. Nice one!!! Interesting that just with new bearings brought the backlash back into spec and different sized circlips weren't needed to change backlash and tooth engagement. Top job!!!
