I’m so busy, change the beam bolts

I originally wanted to replace the rubber sleeves of the entire car at the same time, but it felt good to remove them myself. The bolts were a little rusty. Replace the bolts individually and then twist the rubber sleeves later.

Prepare the tools. The beam bolts are 17. Two are needed, otherwise the nuts will follow when tightening.

I bought Vera’s 17 extension sleeve specially

The other three rows have been removed, and the bolts are quite new. This time, we will replace the two bolts in the third row separately. The first row is at the front end of the car girder, and the second row is at the front end of the driver’s seat and co-pilot. The third row is on both sides of the rear seat, and the fourth row of bolts is hidden on the side of the trunk.

Two screws on the small pedal are loose, and the bolts can be seen when the cushion is lifted up. This bolt does not need to be removed from the trim plate.

Just use force on the top and fix it with the nuts on the bottom, because the operating space below is too small to tighten the screws.

Just fix it with the nuts. The method of the other three rows is similar.

Comparison between old and new

Spray the new bolts and pipe sleeves inside the rubber sleeves with cavity protective wax, so you don’t have to worry about rust in the future.

I don’t know what happened to this row of bolts, but the teeth are almost rusty.

The other three rows are all very good, and you can put them back if you want to rust.
