Hi all,
Hoping someone with clutch install experience can chime in here.
I’m trying to remove the 6mm Allen head bolt that sits in the axle cup / CV flange on the passenger side. Following DIY tips on this forum I cut the right angle off of 2x 6mm Allen keys I had lying around that come with IKEA furniture (I think this is the issue honestly) and throw it on a 1/4” 6mm socket and 1/4” extensions but it rounds out pretty good in the allen bolt.
I think all I need to do is buy some QUALITY hex keys to use, any thoughts? There is quite a bit of flex in my 1/4” straight extension, but the allen keys are definitely not holding up to the torsional flex. Driver side was easy I was able to use a regular 3/8” drive 6mm Allen no problem, but that passenger side 10 mile pit of hell is something else…
