• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

These brackets are cursed

Have the passenger tire off. Facing the rotor.. reach in with left hand to put pressure on bolt. Use bolt in ratcheting wrench in right hand. Say a few choice words and hope it starts.
 


I did mine from underneath without ratcheting wrenches. I'm 6'5" 260lb so I have large hands too.

About 30 min per bolt, lots of f words.
 
I got them in surprisingly quickly after fumbling a couple times. Was considering employing the services of a small child if became too much of a pain.

Oh, this is why I love being small and powerful.
Makes mechanical work like this a breeze.

I just put the bolt head between my index and middle finger.
Get one bolt on the front started first and the rear ones are easy as pie to get started while wiggling the bracket.

Sorry scottydogs! :th_tongue2: At least you can reach things on the top shelf!
I love asking tall women to get something I can't reach...makes them uncomfortable.
 
i was shopping today and a little old lady taps me, and i just looked at her, and said what on the high shelf do you need? i get it all the time lol

and for as big as i am, i also have long fingers that do get into places well. and the reach i have is pretty darn good, ive grabbed stuff that had been dropped by others into the abyss.

being this big has its plus and minus. just like you being short has its + and -. it least i can see over a crowd lol
 


Yea, the crowd thing really sucks when you're my height. I won't go to a concert unless it's outside and I'm on a hill. :th_depressed:
