Whats the LEAST favorite thing on your rig to work on?!?!

[mrdrinksalil]

I thought this might be a good thread and I dont think I've seen one like it before. What do you HATE to work on with your K5/ Truck?

I just got done removing some more rivets and I'd have to say without torches that is my LEAST favorite thing to do!!!

 

[muddermilitia]

anything that requires working on/around rusty brake lines and fuel lines

 

[MWjr]

Anything under the dash!

x2. I hate messing with brake lines. No matter what you wrap around em, you cant keep them from making a mess in your driveway.

motor front main seal is a bitch.

 

[SnackPack]

Engine-to-bellhousing bolts.

 

[Hogback Fabrication]

Having to lay underneath something you are grinding/welding

 

[Russell]

Hydraulic systems, the clutch in particular, though the brakes annoy the crap out of me too. Mostly because it is just me that works on my truck, and bleeding things by yourself is a real pain!

Also hate doing bodywork.

 

[kitimatdude]

welding overhead hurts.... I hate it...

 

[Babaganoosh]

wiring, a pain in the butt and It's boring.

 

[jonathon]

Anything that involves fluids

Gear oil and anti-freeze especially bug me....

Electrical stuff doesn't bother me.

 

[nvrenuf]

Anything paint & body related. Cutting fenders, fixing rust holes, adjusting doors/hoods/fenders, stripping that thick mat crap on the floorboards, etc..

 

[NorCalKid]

Anything that makes a wrench slip, my knuckles are finally starting to look normal again after 3 weeks of being at school

 

[Pookster]

WElding overhead sucks ass. Even with full coverage, something finds a way through. Its just a given.

Busted nuckles, that sucks ass too. GM and Fords, I dunno, sometimes I think their engineering is ass backwards, never thought about how people will want to take it apart for service later.

Rusty crap. I hate working on rusty crap. Every bolt is like a gamble. "is this the one that I will slip on or round off". Good tools have limited the busted nuckles/rusty crap syndrome, but I still spray penetrant all over the place, cause after they stopped slipping, the studs would start ripping out.

#1 thing... anything UNDER the car.

 

[rwright07]

wiring- it seems much more foreign to me than anything mechanical whatsoever

 

[MaxPF]

Sheet metal/body work... which explains why mine still looks like crap

 

[badmix]

Anything that requires me to work on the back part of the engine bay, be that tighten header bolts, change plugs, get to the dizzy, etc etc etc.

Its really about what kinda mod im in, there are days when I dont want to even look at my truck and then there are days im excited to tinker.

 

[lectric80]

Pretty much anything sheet metal related. I can do pretty much everything else with my eyes closed, but working on the body is just too involved to really be fun.

 

[Thunder]

I'm with the, Hate body work bunch. I love to spray paint. But hate all the sanding/bondo work needed to get to the paint stage.
Everything else on the truck is a piece of cake.

Yeah wiring sucks...even though I seem to be doing more of it than anything else, it still sucks to know you can burn your truck to the ground with 1 wrong wire. hmmm what else...Nope just wiring, especially under the dash. I think I want to make my dash support removable, kinda like the later model cars and trucks have.
