All set to do front Z26 pads and rotors and rear pads.
Been stuck for an hour trying to remove tube with 13mm bolt (removed).from the firt corner.
AAAAARRRRGGGG! I cannot punch the tube out!
have watched numerous videos that it just punches out.
I am in NJ, and the pads are 3 years old, is it just rust like build up, do i have to punch harder?
Last thing i did was spray with a little rust penetrating spray and I am writing as I am waiting for it to help.
Am I misssing something, the 13mm bolt is out the pins are out, it will not move!
oh man, almost 4 hours, been spraying, and banging with these as hard as i can in the space. No damn luck.
I also tried the vice grip but tapping didn't do it, and i couldn't get a good angle to hit it hard.
At this point i will keep spraying and trying, but I am faced with putting the wheel back on and bringing to an indy.

I’ll typically back the nut out, shortly before it comes off, then put my socket over the nut and tap lightly on it. Should move the bolt enough to loosen it up.

i saw that I had more pad left than I thought, so I put the wheel back on, planning on bringing the car to an Indy to change pads and rotors.
So, to answer, no, didn't get that pad retainer spindle out.
Tried for 8 hours, lol
Well, I guess this is what you get when you buy a "slightly" used car. We bought our Hellcat with 6k on the odometer and immediately brought it back to the dealership because the brakes were pulsating and shaking under soft and moderate braking. They resurfaced the rotors and roughly 3k later...

Changing differential fluid (gear oil) on a 2016 Dodge Challenger hellcat. They made it nice and easy with a drain and fill plug. You don't event really have to jack the car up but a little bit to perform this job. Make sure you have friction...
Hello,
What is the impact of installing a 180 degree thermostat and dropping the engine's running temperatures ~20 degrees? How does it affect the computer and tuning if the car never reaches the (seemingly) high 210+ degree temp range?
My car is stock, no engine mods. But I live in Texas...
