i kinda have an ideal of doing it but i dont know where all the spot welds are located and how many i have to drill out for the whole support to come off.......any hints......

 

I'm doing the same thing in the next couple of days, I'll put up some pics whenI get around to it.

 

hey kool man, plz keep me posted on that.......i would love to see what i would have to go through.....

 

Ive seen a diagram of a DC2 showing where every spot weld is that holds the subframe on. Im sure one for an EG would be very helpful to a lot of people, myself included...any volunteers?

 

yes, any achieves on this that wants to show us "wrooky" how??

 

how many spot welds is there to drill for the eg6 radiator support to come out?
and write ups on this??

 

alot lol but ya i did it a few weeks ago ill see if i can take some pics,
p.s when u drill out the welds if you dont have a welder just use bolts to put the new one in. theres alot more drillin but its hella cheap

 

what size bolt u use to bolt the new radiator support in?? and where did u drill to put the bolts in???

 

Glad someone's doing this. I have a bent support in my car and the hood won't latch the whole way. It's like $90 on ebay for a new support. I was wondering how to do it. I can't wait to see the picks so I can do this to mine. When you put the bolts in...is it as safe as welding it? I have to get my car inspected so I don't want to do it and it won't pass inspection.

 

bump on this, waiting for some pix on doing it...

 

WELD IT!!!

 

waiting for pics

 

First of all, why are you doing this? Second how come you can't see the spot welds? is it rust? You can wire brush with a wire wheel atached to the drill around the mount and they should be visible then. I had to relocate both mounts for my k swap and it was very easy thing to do. I have no pics though

bump! for the same problem.

:edit: previous owner slammed the hood leaving the outward facing dents on my hood

 

im doing this because my front end support has been cut to fit a one piece front end...

 

I just counted eighteen spot welds on each frame rail two right behind the headlights and two right near the corner lights for each side. I just started with a 3/16 drill bit and stepped up in 32nd's till I had all the weld drilled out.


My rad support came right off no problems.
