Car Tips & Tricks For Removing And Replacing A Knockoff Spinner
Have you ever wondered how to remove Cobra knockoff Spinners? Well, if you have, then you are in luck because I am here to help you out! In this tutorial, I will show you step-by-step how to remove these spinners and the tools required.
First things first, let's talk about safety wire. Before starting any work, it is important to remove the safety wire that secures the spinner in place. To do this, you will need a pair of wire cutters to cut the wire. Make sure to cut the wire close to the spinner to avoid damaging the spinner or any surrounding components.
Next, you will need a lead hammer. This is a soft hammer that is used to avoid damaging the spinner during removal. Using a regular hammer might cause scratches or dents in the spinner or the rims, which is not what you want.
Once you have the lead hammer, you can proceed to remove the spinner. To do this, you will need to tap the spinner with the lead hammer gently. Make sure to do this carefully to avoid damaging the spinner or surrounding components.
After you have successfully removed the spinner, you will need to prepare the new spinner. You should also make sure that the threads are clean and free of dirt or debris then add anti-seize.
Once the new spinner is ready, you can proceed to install it. However, you need to ensure that you do not cross-thread the new spinner. Cross-threading can cause damage to the threads and make it difficult to remove the spinner in the future.
To avoid cross-threading, you should start by screwing the new spinner onto the thread by hand. This will help you to ensure that the threads are aligned correctly. Once you have done this, you can proceed to use the lead hammer to knock the spinner on.
Finally, you will need to use safety wire to secure the new spinner in place. Make sure to use the tools explained in this tutorial to do this correctly.
And that's it! You have successfully removed and installed a new Cobra knockoff Spinner. Just remember to be careful and use the right tools to avoid damaging your car or any surrounding components.
