Trunk pull

Probably helps if I include the STL for the trunk pull upthread.


Things you need:
  • The print
  • Pry tool
  • CA (optional)
  • Loctite Blue (optional)
If metric:

  • M4 well nut (8mm OD)
  • M4 x 35mm socket head screw
If freedom units:
  • 8-32 well nut (5/16th OD)
  • 8-32 x 1 3/8th socket head screw
Directions if not obvious:
  1. Install the well nut in the back recess
  2. (Optional) wick one drop of CA into the gap
  3. (Optional) one drop of loctite blue into the threads of the well nut
  4. Insert the socket head screw into the front, thread it until it just bites
  5. Pop the push pin of your choice off the trunk liner (if you have one)
  6. Insert the assembly in, tighten screw until it stops wiggling.
Be aware that loctite blue can slightly melt/lubricate the well nut, causing it to come apart
