special requests for how to's??

Post by pandemonium001 »

A some of you may see i am stripping my e21 for rebuild,
are there any requests for "how to" threads with pics??
i have no problem sharing info and taking pics as i go, infact it will help me slow down a bit and force me to create a record on how to put the stuff back together!! :loll

i will do the same when it comes to rebuild.

:thnx

Thanks for the DIY instructions and for taking this initiative. If perhaps you have (now or in the future) photos that may be of use for our FAQ section, for example pointing at common E21 issues, that's more than welcome.

Find the FAQ section under construction here: http://www.bmwe21.net/forum/viewforum.php?f=38
Regards/groeten, Jeroen

Dashboard removal would be a good one, I've heard it can be a bit tricky with hidden bolts and such. Also, replacement of track rod assemblies (I'd look in my Haynes manual but unfortuantely I left it in my glovebox, which flooded - and now all the pages are stuck together!).
