[phillies23]

How Do You Remove The Bolts That Are In The Stock Airbox Connected To The MAF :(... This Shit Is So Frustrating A Lil Help Please :mitsu:

[pzark]

righty tighty/ lefty loosy

[S2myEVO]

if they dont come out try using a vice grip/clamp (whatever) on the inside of the airbox then using the socket or crescent wrench. that should help

[phillies23]

lol funny ive been using that method since i was a lil kid but heres the problem !

[NativeSS]

theres no nuts on the outside? it looks like the bolts are put in place so you can turn the nuts on the outside...

[pzark]

push it out

[phillies23]

imma have to remove the IC Pipe but i only have a lil space to remove the bottom clamp

[S2myEVO]

lol funny ive been using that method since i was a lil kid but heres the problem !


dood the nuts are on the other side...

you have to take off the entire airbox to get to them

loosen the intake clamp to get it off. NOT THAT HARD

[phillies23]

you wanna hear something funny lol... i dropped the Head Bolt of my Gator Grip in side :( fuck!!!! im shitting bricks

[JOOTZ]

^^^ i would too, just take it easy removing the box from the MAS, hoping the bolt just got stuck between the mas wires

[phillies23]

Head Bolt and Gator Socket*

[JOOTZ]

oh shit

[phillies23]

yup.. :| i think i should have room once i remove the box to reach in for that shit... just reach in with a clamp or a magnet ..

[JOOTZ]

magnet might work, if not AAA tow to dealership and have it fixed, its not that bad

[phillies23]

Take your box out and take out the 10s on the inside that hold those bolts in place.

just undo the hose clamp for the maf and the 2 10s that hold the box in place and then take out the filter and you can see the bolts.

[phillies23]

^^ imma give this a try one more time.. if not would somebody find time to help out ;) i'll be around the 213 or 626 with hotwings and beer !! ..

^^^ thats how you do it bro, take out the bolts that hold the box in, loosen the clamps to the maf then pull out slowly. you just have to reach back there to loosen then take out those maf bolts
i`ll say if the car is drivable bring it here to my place and i`ll help you

i just finished up a clutch job on my car so i know all about that air box, had to put everything back to stock for trade in.. oh and i wont do it without a lift again. but worth the knowledge (clutch install).
