Inner Fender skirt fasteners
From : tmills65
Q: any ideas sure - go down to your auto parts store and find the proper-diameter plastic fastener. theres a type that expands when the center pin is pushed in but the head of the pin has a phillips slot in it and can be backed off with a screwdriver then pulled out and re-used. measure the diameter of the hole use a set of drill bits and find the bit the just fits through the hole - thats your diameter so you get the correct size of fastener. something like this http//www.thefastenerwarehouse.com/catalog/item/568361/214699.htm .

hey all i need to swap out the u joint in my right side front driveshaft in the next week or so. any forseeable problems i just had the brake rotors replaced so the hubs should still be fairly easily removable... is it simply a matter of removing wheel caliper anvil rotor/hub assembly drive axle then replacing the u joint i did my rear driveshaft u joints last week with no problems other than finding the correct ones....napa crappy tire & partsource all showed them having 3 different u joints...they were all the same tia randy. .
