Easy way to swap rear diff bushing without press?

[CollinsCj]

I can't remember the exact size, somewhere around 6'' but they go in the rear panel underneath the window. There is a little storage compartment and right above it there are the holes

Hrmmm, sounds like its going to take some work to get some decent tunes to work in the stock places on the CQ...

How did I miss this?! Nice coupe -I'm jealous!

[Kuma]

YES, how did you miss this!?

[secretagentman]

i put some infinity kappas in the rear of my cq. direct fit. i know several boston separates (i have ralleys) area also a direct fit. no mods needed.

[Kuma]

do you happen to have any photos? im wondering if i should just sell the speakers i have now and get ones that fit.

[secretagentman]

no i do not have photos. i did this about 8 or 9 years ago. i really dont want to pull the panels for photos either. sorry.

[Kuma]

Dont worry about it, i had only meant if you had them already. Thanks for the help though!

[secretagentman]

no prob. i have a cq i am breaking down. if i have time my next trip home i will pull the panels and get pics of that car, since i wont have to reinstall. i helped the orignal owner install the speakers. they too fit without mods, tho i dont recall what the speakers where.

[Kuma]

Sounds good to me, id appreciate it. Eventually though, ill just take the speaker stuff apart myself to see whats underneath. But if i can get a head start at how to dive in without hitting my head on the bottom of the pool, ill take it.

On that last pic, the bomb looks original and it obviously needs the feed line replaced (it's just a piece of flexible metric hose) as it is leaking and weeping Pentosin onto the body of the bomb.

As you can see, the door is pushed in below the beltline, but there is only a little tiny buckle on the frame rail (door sill) that a half hour with a mallet and a 2x4 could push down - then you can mount up the new door.

Is that in your driveway or still in Steve's?

[Kuma]

steve's driveway. I havent gone get it yet. But ive purchased a Newer Bomb from Toledo Joe and a REALLY nice Drivers seat from his recent part out.


when i get those im going to head down there to install. Im still trying to hurry up my disability check so i can pay Steve.

[Kuma]

Forgot to mention that Steve had puchased a few parts from someone on this board. I forgot who. He got the front door panels and he also scored a Black door panel from a CQ in San Antonio at the pick and pull.

WHat is the LOWEST offset with the widest wheels i can run on a cq? what about tire size at stock height? with a 17 and or an 18" wheel?

[Kuma]

Got my New seat in the mail yesterday!

got my hands on a set of S2 lights with HID and wiring harness!


now i just need my coupe....

[HeartlessNomad12]

for the speakers i replaced the fronts and tossed a sub in the trunk and it made a huge difference, i eventually got some boston separates that bolted directly in and just had to tuck away the crossover and run wiring for it but took it out since it really made no difference.

Shayne (secretagentman) is parting out a white coupe, He may have a good door for you. Send him a PM he doesn't get on here as often as the rest of us addicts

[Kuma]

So I just need front speakers really? Remember what size the speakers are? I am wondering of a small amp and a couple speakers would do the car well. Doesn't need anything crazy.

[HeartlessNomad12]

4inch, just get a decent head unit and you dont need an amp for speakers that small, if the woffers in the back are blown just disconnect them and run the tweeters, you do need a sub tho

[Kuma]

I have a set 6.5" audiobahn speakers and 6x9" audiobahn speakers. Then a 300 watt amp.

[secretagentman]

i have black door cards if needed.
