Your last words were spot on... you gotta do sacrifices for the bigger picture. Nicely done.

Several marinating in the editing room as we speak!

my spindles weren't thaaaat bad. first make sure you have the bolt that goes into the notch removed. Put your penatrant in through that hole, let it sit. Hit the pin with a dead blow (dead blow is critical) or press it while you work the hinge back and fourth. Once you get it to move one way hit it the other way and keep applying penetrating oil. Once its gone back and fourth a few times it should come out at lot easier. when reinstalling start with a new part and maybe wire brush the hole out really good.

[@TheCurbCut]

Oh of course that mid bolt was removed. These pins were just as hard to remove on my own car. Any car that’s seen rust / has lived in the North East is likely to have this issue. (Hence why they make the tool! Haha) I’d count yourself lucky, my man! But good luck to anyone attempting this job - it’d be nice of it was always that easy!

[@PhantasmPhoton]

@@TheCurbCut aaah yeah my car was from south ga.

[@hbmartian]

Reusing a factory sway bar after spending 10K on T3 stuff is disappointing. :( ST Suspension makes an affordable upgrade.

[@darrengalligan3085]

Did you know that this song is in German ? He said "If I were a dog instead of a human" and "How do I become a dog?" its a little weird to hear, if you know xD 10:30 Min

[@TheCurbCut]

Everyone is entitled to their own ideas on poetic license! Haha

[@TheDatsunGuy86]

Where is this place located like address, have a 72 240z I need some work done?

[@chaseincats]

there are more datsuns with black minilites, overfenders, and fender mirrors than stock ones at this point...

[@TheCurbCut]

And more people who miscategorize wheels, I guess…

[@CJkofoed]

Damn that’s cool. Glad it makes you mad.

[@spener1313]

Nissan literally sold the over fenders to the general public so they could have them homologated for the Nissan race cars. So it has a Nissan part number..... And that's what "stock" part means. Your just hating

[@tingel-tangelbob3122]

1:35 tf is theese lyrics 😭

[@TheCurbCut]

10:35 (?) is a song by a German band called Tobi Wan Kenobi
