any one?
ok first off.....FUCK SAFTEY WIRE
ive have been here for about 3 hrs now trying to do the damn saftey wire to hold the bolts that connect the rotor to the hat. does any one have any adivce on how to do this step????
the wire either snaps or is no where near tight enough to prevent the bolt from backing out
please help!!!!
do you have a pair of swipes (saftey wire pliers?)
im a no shit pro at saftey wiring but its really a trade you have to show
i can do you SW for you at the bbq if youll be there and i can show you at the same time
(if its breaking your putting too many twists in it 12 per inch is suffecent enough)
call me 910 581 2947 and i can walk you through it sorta
i once had a 592whp ep on pump gas, i sold it and bought a Z
(heed my advice i know what im doing)
i have the same break setup just not installed yet where did you get your safety wire
you can get wire and swipes from harbor freight

thanks for your help jason...but just a heads up if i ever have to do this again im going to ship it to you hahaha this was insane

sounds like a plan...ill see if i can get some bolts with the holes in it...so you can really show me how to do it properly. so when i have to replace the rotors i do it the right way haha
but i did find it easier to do the pig tail ends with regular vise grips. i was able to get a better hold on the wire with them and they were a lot smaller then my swipes
Safety wire or lockwire is common in the aircraft and racing industries as an extra precaution to keep vital fasteners from unintentionally loosening and parts falling off due to vibration or other forces. This function is often referred to as positive locking. It also allows rapid and easy visual inspection of fasteners to ensure that they have been tightened. Safety Wiring of fasteners is often a requirement to pass technical safety inspections in racing. Safety Wire itself is available in multiple gauges and different materials, depending on the application. In consumer aircraft and racing applications, stainless steel wire is used, most commonly in .032" diameter, although other gauges are used for specific circumstances. Typically, safety wire is threaded through a hole drilled into a fastener or part, then twisted and anchored to a second fastener or part, then twisted again, usually with the aid of safety wire pliers.
