prothane race inserts

Post by sneakers O'toole » Sun Jun 11, 2006 7:30 pm

ok,so i'm putting these in this weekend and i've never done this before. just wondering if there is any chance of snapping the bolts when i tighten them up a-la valve cover bolts, or is that not something to worry about. i dont think so but its better to be sure.
i'll be using hand tools by the way..yeah fun..ha. and i assume useing a jack to brace the engine even if i do one at a time is a good idea, yes?

thanks,
harry

You shouldn't break the bolts. You wont need to brace the engine with a jack either. Just do one at a time and you'll be ok :wink:
