i usually go to the closest parts store which in my area is o’reily. i check the prices and availibility online first and usually there isn’t much of a price difference. i only buy basic stuff at walmart – i.e. – oil, filter, basic tools, tape, etc.

I don’t think it will be that bad removing the rusty exhaust bolts. My civic is 12 years and I replaced the exhuast manifold. The bolts appeared very rusty, but I put some acetone spray on it and I had no trouble removing them. I am sure penetrating oil is better and will help you get the bolts of quicker.

Your gonna need to adjust your parking break since you have new shoes on. this will allow your drum to fit on

i just use regular castro 5w-30. I like the synthetics, but they are just way too expensive. Unless someone here can justify the price.

Eric. I thank you for this forum, your videos, and everything you have done. Just ignore the disgruntled and the haters. They will always be there no matter what. As for the FAT videos, I’d keep them on the ectg website. I like it there.

I would try using penetrating oil. And a impact torque wrench.

Quoted From hondaslave1342:

Are you sure its not the tire itself…T)

The tires are fairly new and I did inspect them and they appear to be in good condition. I didn’t notice any warps to any of them. I guess I could rotate the tires and see if there is any change in the noise pattern.

[mckrishes]

you replaced everything on the rear. Did you inspect the front rotors for cracks, pits, etc.? That is likely the problem.

[mckrishes]

try flushing the system and check the fans to see if they are working.

[mckrishes]

you could definetly tell if your brakes are dragging. i.e. lots of brake dust, excessive pad wear, very hot wheels.

The honda dealer has a pretty cool diagnostic tool that they can hook up to your car to check all systems. I would take my car there.
