Anyone know anything about ls1 swaps or have done them in the past? I’m doing one right now and have some questions on the steering rack/column setup, can someone tell me the difference (with pics) of the e30 airbag steering column, and the non-airbag steering column?

Anyone have a pair of front inner fender liners? Lazy, inconsiderate dude who “rolled” my fenders in the Fremont area cut them up without my consent. I shouldn’t have ended up paying him and stopped him, but I was multitasking and working off my laptop while waiting for him (dumb move on my behalf).

That sounds horrible. Might just bite the bullet on this, the three jaw puller is a bit too much effort for me and I don’t want to cut my bushings up, they have low miles and I plan to reuse them.
Got something new in the works as well. I’m sure I’m overpaying a bit but seems like thats the trend nowadays anyways. [emoji83]

Originally posted by McGyver View PostFor solid bushings I lube up the shaft with sil-glyde, then use a pipe/pliers to rotate the bushing until i can eventually slide it off. It sucks. For the semi-soid bushings, I cut the supports, remove the lolipop, then hack off the inner part stuck on the CA. It always sucks.
it has tons of other uses as well. I use mine for getting inner bearing races off E30 rear hubs, driveshaft CSBs, and a variety of random stuff.
