Help with the rear bumper tuck!!

[lakipolitis]

How do i do the rear bumper tuck... i've already gotten the front done... but the rear seems to be a little bit different. Where do i drill??

[lakipolitis]

Where is the best spot to drill... if any one could send me a picture that would be so much appreciated!

It's really not hard. Drill a hole through the shock so the fluid drains out, drill 2 if you need to

[lakipolitis]

yeah but the question is where on the shock. I drilled on the black part on the rear ones... but where specifically on the shock in the back. I can see the shocks, but nowhere clear to get the fluid to come out.

[MR 325]

Anywhere

sweet... 2nd question, how do i stop from gettin hosed in the face with the hydraulic fluid?

Looking away? Come on, if you're going to start doing work on your own car you shouldn't need to ask questions like how to not get sprayed in the face. Thats just common sense.

[lakipolitis]

Thanks. I didn't think of that. Ohhh no I did, when i drilled the front shocks, and yup I was saved by my goggles. But when you're under the shocks and they're aimed right at your face, how do you not soak yourself in the hydraulic fluid... I was wondering if anyone had any tips, but thanks for the sarcasm.

You can wrap the shock in an old towel then drill.

[lakipolitis]

Sounds better than duck and cover. Thanks.

Ya, I just closed my eyes though. And ruined an old shirt.

i just layed down way beside it. Drilled straight up. Used a little bit more arm strength to do so but i didn't even get touched by the fluid.
