Need help with header

Post by dgerm »

Doers anyone have some spare time this week to lend a hand. I need access to some basic tools and some floor jacks. I am new here and don't know how compensation goes but with rugby it usually consists of your choice of beverages. Here is the list of tools and I have the entire install guide as well. Let me know if you can't see the image

Wish I could help, but it looks like I may be working a long week. Anyways, here's some "compensation free" advice. Start spraying EVERYTHING you think you might need to take off or loosen with PB Blaster. Spray it 2-3 times daily, and with the zeal of someone about to loose their virginity. To improve the function, take a small (ultra small) hammer or a wrench and tap on the bolt and surrounding area lightly for a few moments to break the surface tension and allow it to soak in good. Best of luck! :thumby:

Thanks for the reply! i was also advised to run the truck for a few minutes to heat everything up a tad. I am mostly worried about the torquing part and my lack of tools living on campus
