Call R_DIRTY_3, Brad. He works with these everyday! He might have SOMETHING that resembles a C Spanner :(

I do!

I have 2 options for you. I have some new ones i can sell you, OR i can lend you a set. However, i do require a $50 to guarantee return....Not saying i dont trust you, but ive lost several sets in the past. $50 will be given back to you when the spanners come back :(

nah they not that bad, lasted me a few goes....

only thing is, your knuckles cop a good beating when the spanner tip wears.. heh

Thats why you should buy/use decent quality ones. Your poor knuckles dont deserve that lol

The Tein C Spanners are probably the best on the market.

With a specially designed hooking part they can be used to adjust 70, 90 and 132mm spring seat/lock rings.

They also have a 12.7mm hole so if you really need to use a lot of force you can use astandard breaker bar.

And as the material is only 6mm thick, it will locate into lock rings, with less chance of slipping out, than others that are claimed stronger at 7 or even 8mm thick.

So there ya go. Lesson 1 in C Spanners :D

    • They're all horrible. X-Trails have had a nasty sounding 4cyl since forever, no matter what engine family it came from. The CVTs only made that worse. Then the whole Renault thing only made every Nissan that was contaminated by them even worse again. The only fun I've had in a X-Trail was having it blown sideways across a frozen Minnesota highway at 90 mph trying to make it to the airport to get out of the frozen hellhole of Hoth. Nearly died. Was great fun.
    • Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆
    • Let large companies that are making money off selling kits do the preliminary engineering for you. If they all do -10, then that is all you'll ever need. 
    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
