Celica Forums General Discussion Engine and Performance LIFT BOLTS

i was wondering at what estimated miles i should be replacing my lift bolts? i barely push my car and when i do i only hit lift when im racing which is probably only 3-4 times a week. Also i got an o4 GTS so what differs the bolts i have now to the new ones from the dealer? Also if i do break one...does it do major damage to ur car ? and where do i need to fish it out of?...thanks

The whole lift bolt thing is only for older GTS celicas is does not apply to yours so you dont have to worry about it

Well if i were you and you do need them fixed DONT go to the dealership. My car is under warranty and I told them to fix my lift bolts since they were really worn down (which probably yours have some wear to them as well). I go there and they are like "what are lift bolts?" So i print them a 17 page instructional about how to fix lift bolts and what they are. So instead of fixing them, they lie to me. They say "yea nothing was wrong with your 'lift' we tested it and theres definitly power there." Well it turns out they put 21 miles on it, and told me my car was ready 2 hours later. Those jackasses . So I have yet to fix my own lift bolts I hear it takes over 7 hours...

only 40 min to replace lift bolt ... who ever told that it took 7 hrs must have been sleeping while fixing it.

^^ then why on the instructions does it say it takes 7 or more hours?!? If it takes only 40 min Ill go ahead and do it now lol

ooh oooHH! i wanna know how!!
