No it won't, mine were completely fine. You just have to let the glass cool a little bit before prying otherwise you can chip off little pieces of the glass. I know from experience on an extra head light that I had.

QUOTE (presure2 @ Jun 19, 2011 - 10:58 AM)  wow. what a thread. now, i must admit, i havent looked at this thread really at all untill this morning, but from meeting you at CSP, i definetly wouldnt have thought you'd be this rude. these guys are telling you to research over and over for a REASON. you want everything spoon fed for you, like stevenson said, but even if we do spoon feed you, your still gonna be lost when it actually comes time to DO somthing, cause you arnt actually LEARNING anything. these guys that are telling you all this stuff are guys who HAVE done the research, and taken the time to learn how to and perform theyre own swaps. youve met cam, ask him what he has gone thru over the past YEAR researching his swap, then ask him how hard reality slapped him in the face when it came time to actually DO it. without the help of dustin and steff, he would have been LOST, and not because he didnt research and take the time...its because he's never done it. like you. untill you've actually done somthing, all this talk is just that, talk, but the more you actually take the time to do the research and learn as much as you can now, the more prepared you'll be when you run into the little hiccups that come with ANY swap. if you cant handle that, you better be prepared to spend ALOT of money to do things twice, and expect lots of problems along the way. good luck. i probably deserve that and i didnt mean to disrespect anyone if i did specially not dustin cus he has been nothing but help to me as well but to be fair manny ive seen a few posts where ppl just throw the "do research" bit around as a joke, like one post where a guy goes " i got this one do research lol" now thats rude as well if we wanna grow as a community if u think someone isnt ready to do a swap we should ask him what does he think he know to see if hes ready and no am no mechanic and i dont use technical words there for i use terms like frankestein peice given that its a clutch made for the 3sgte to work with the s54 and also other forums just confuse the **** out of me because everyone post things as they understand them and their not necessarily mechanics or technicians so confusion arises |

What tranny are you using? If it's the s54, just buy a new one at autozone. Be sure to bring in the old one when you buy it so you can get the core back on it. I think it was about $80 after the core was taken off.

Wait so you need the carrier bracket for the axle? I might have one, not sure though. I'll check tomorrow.

you need the axle carrier from the turbo MR2.
The set up is similar to the 5s but you need the MR2 part. The carrier bolts to the back of the block and the axle has a bearing on it that clips into the carrier with a snap ring. -------------------- |

SO my axle stubs look like this no snapring on the tip only a Cap ring? i guess it can be called
and YES the cap ring IS ON (dont know if thats the proper name as it looks like a cap)  guess the problem is the axle carrier outside of damaging the axle stub which i have a spare for i guess i could also mess up the differential i guess or should i not worry about that? AXLE CARRIER NEEDED ASAPPPPPPPPPPPP JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJA anyone knows if theyr easy to find in junkyards or is that one of those parts they usually dispose of This post has been edited by LimitedGT4: Jul 10, 2011 - 12:48 PM |

I couldn't remember if I had a carrier or not. most of the stuff I do is on the driver side. That doesn't have one for sure since it's too short but I do remember a snap ring near my spare engine on the ground. I'll try and source you an axle carrier. I know a local, dan, on the mr2oc parting out his car this weekend. Oh. and were BOTH axles popping out? were those the two axle inners I sold you?They don't look familiar(all trying to remember from memory so i might be wrong) They should have a groove for a snap ring. They look like this. You could see the ring that I'm talking about. These are e153 inners
