Hey folks trying to take out the drive shaft so i can take out my transmission and engine. been trying to throw a wrench on the nut (at the end) and use a screwdrive to turn the shaft so the bolts can loosen up. how ever this isnt working. tried pb blaster, wd40, wd40 penetrate. next thing ill try is heat but im worried about the grease, oils from earlier and the break lines near by. alternatively im thinking about grinding off the nuts but not sure if there are any other ideas. please lmk! P.S. I started stripping the nut head. https://imgur.com/a/w9CVTiL

Size/length/and pitch of the compressor “bracket bolt sizes”?
DUDE posted a topic in Nissan L6 Forum
Does anyone know the size, length ,and pitch of the bolts that hold the bracket for the compressor on in L24 engine? -
I was changing the headlights in my 78 280Z tonight and I managed to snap 3 of the 4 bolts that hold the headlight in (the ones with the flat head). Can someone please tell me the size, length, and pitch of these bolts so I can buy replacements? I also need to get the remaining bolts out. I am thinking pliers, because they protrude on the other side, but would a small easy-out be a better idea? Thanks!

I learned a few tricks when installing my bumpers. ( as requested by California Highway Patrol) I bought some used ones and the rear must have been in a slight accident because the bolt flanges were bent and did not align with the body holes. Tip #1 Hammering then prying the side flanges on the rear bumper back into shape does not work we'll. cut a piece of wood about 1.5" x 1.5" and jam it under the flange. Stand it on its end the hammer it down. Works great. Tip #2 To attach the rear bumper, fasten the straight part to the body first, then attach the side flanges to the body next, then screw the sides to the straight part. Reason - if there is any irregularities, the holes will not align if you try to install the whole thing at once. Tip #3 Use some 1/2" (inside hole dimension) rubber bearings between the body and side flanges of the rear bumper. Gives good spacing.
