Tried to install the progress RSB today but im having trouble with the passenger side endlink.

The driver side endlink took me so long to unscrew, it was insane. Theres no room to move and it takes forever. I did spray this rust loosen thing 7 hours before I went at it and then WD40 right before I started but it still took forever.

Then when I went over to the other side it was even worse. I had it going a couple turns and then it just stopped turning and I actually stripped the hex end of the bolt.

I just need these things off, I have moog endlinks to put in. What is the best way to get that end link out now that the hex part of the bolt is stripped.

 

nm, sawzall did the trick.

but the Moog endlinks dont have a thread for the grease things, is that how its supposed to be?

 

And its in. ( I know I put in the sticker upside down, I really dont care)



at the same time, ive got this!!!



Overall, the endlinks were a HUGE pain. Otherwise, it went smooth. Without the endlink troubles, I would probably have been done in an 1 hour.

 

I also have the Moogs and didn't install the grease fitting.

I was just talking to my wife and there is already about 14 inches of snow on the ground! Me not having to shovel any of it FTW!!!!!

 

I got the grease fitting in, well my dad showed me how. He tapped it in a bit and then used an open end wrench to thread it in. Seemed to do the trick.

Snow is still coming down, not as hard as it was before, but still going. ~11" so far. I shoveled our driveway, and when I was done I looked back and it was all covered again with about an inch of snow. It was kinda fun though, I love snow

 

Went home for the holidays. So glad the wife hired a plow to do my 150 ft driveway!
