Infinibini

Hello all,

I am going to elongate my toe bolt hole on my car and I was just wondering if I should use one of those metal tungsten allow bits or a stone grinding bit. I am not sure what would cut through the metal best. Also, I'd prefer not to use the paper-thin discs.

At first, I was going to make the topic "What should I use to grind my hole" but I thought better of it!

Thank you

take some pics please! About to do the same.

Before and after.

Infinibini

Will do! It's gonna be a long day... Doing front and rear coilovers, camber arms, and toe bolts at once...

Awesome! I'm contemplating doing it myself and save $600. Still need an alignment done.

You doing both front and rear camber arms?

Wish rear camber arms were available for the 'verts.

Infinibini

Yes, I have SPC front camber arms and rear camber arms with the toe bolts. I decided to do it myself because it would have cost 700 or more to install everything. Instead, I bought a super strong impact wrench from harbor freight for a $240. Now I can do it myself and I have a cordless impact wrench that can crack any nut like butter!! I already did a test crack on that 19 mm nut everyone complains about. It cracked it off like it wasn't even there!

I just realized vert means convertible. SPC really doesn't make a rear camber arm for that? I am surprised.

Make sure you use anti seize on the CO threads before buttoning everything up. They'll seize on if not. I didn't even think about it until after..

It was a bit of a heart breaker.

​​​​​Coilover threads? Like the big threads on the body for height adjustment? That's would just attract dirt

Yes, where the locking collars spin up and down. Saw a YouTube video of it so bad the guy had to use a hammer drill to break them loose.

Did he live in a snowy place?

I thought of putting lube or something on the threads but I thought it would attract dirt. Hmm...

better off washing off grease and dirt than dealing with seized coil overs, but if they are going to be in an environment where they might sieze socks are a popular option and will keep the dirt off the grease if you want to grease them as well https://coiloverdepot.com/products/m...ver-protection

That's what I like, I think a sock or cover would be perfect! I might have to order some.

Are you elongating the hole that's on the frame?

I think that's the frame per the picture.
