Info on removing S4 Crash bungs?

02-09-2012, 07:32 AM

I Have a S4 Challenge and really want the crash bungs gone along with the crash frame that supports them and goes around the rad. Does any one have info on how to take it off. Cant get any tools in there. Also will I need new parts to replace ones that come out?

A few picture will help you get answers or the make of crash bungs and frame things.

you need a really thin walled socket, i ground the outside edge off the thinnest one i could find, cant remember the size socket it is though ~:?

reet i found my socket for such a task

a kennedy 14mm one
once you take the nut off the bolt and withdraw the bolt the engine will drop out of the frame, you had best support it during the operation

Thats what I thought, is the bolt that comes out alright to use without the crash bungs and frame do you know?

yup, the bolt is threaded far enough to do so (if it actually is 5 mm longer)
