I'm taking the supercharger off, and I can't for the life of me get the rear two bolts off. I have them all the way loose, but they don't clear the firewall. What the hell is wrong with me?:cuss:

 

[13 Z]

please? I'm about to kick the dog

pull the bolts up bout half way..and then lift the super charger off...

usually easier done with two people...one per side to keep the bolts bout half way up

 

[13 Z]

piss, It's just me, but I'll give it a shot. Thanks bud

 

[SVTxXxFreak6]

Poor fella, dog doesn't deserve it! lol

 

[13 Z]

the bolts hit the top of the fire wall. when I get them up half way, they keep the blower from being pulled off. Am I stupid or something?

Thats how we got Mai's eaton off. except I wanna say we had to finagle it at a slight angle. but yeah half way up and you are done

I think my head may explode soon. We shall see. I'll be back in 10

 

[bgstew6]

yeah there is some fenagling that has to occur.....kinda hard to explain....but that is the jist....


some trucks are just like that, and I attribute that to how the cab was set. too far forward and a little tricky getting the SC...back well pretty simple...my truck no problems...my buddies truck exact year as mine and tricky.

lift up the sc enough to get your middle fingers underneath and hold the bolts half way with your index fingers then lift it out with the front of the supercharger tilted down thats the way i just did it monday night.

 

[bgstew6]

thats a good explanation right there

 

[morrison_205]

tape them up half way out if you have too. no need to kick the dog but i do understand the frustration with that damn hood latch jabbing you in the gut haha

at least your bolts come out... my driver rear one wont come out...

 

[ChrisNelson]

I know your frustration. Mine come right out with plenty of room, but when Ryan and I did his, it was a PITA to get them out.

 

[13 Z]

well, thanks for the help guys. Once morrison gave me a break down I was good to go. This is my first time REALLY working on this truck...what a PITA. There is no room under this hood.


but I still love it for some reason...

Next time just take the hood off. I have done that to several cars that I have owned. It makes working on the truck so much easier.

Hammer to the firewall works also.

It only gets harder. ;-)

I do remember that was the biggest PITA when i pulled my blower off. I remember getting very mad and saying things that i shouldn't have said to my truck.
