Backed this pile into he the garage and went to work getting the front off the ground.
Got the knuckle apart and boy oh boy shit was fucked.... I'm not even sure how this thing was still driveable.
Richard to the rescue again with the easy out for the snapped stud in the knuckle...
Next morning pretty sure it was hottest day of the year...what better way to spend it than sweating it out working on this pile of parts
Got all the old nasty grease and chards of bearing cleaned out.... This is good right ???
fresh studs
Back in Business well kinda. When I put the wheel back on I check the wheel bearing and it was a tad on the loose side. Was kinda like well I could run it for just this pismo trip...I had plans to open it up and take a look at the status of the grease and snug up the nut a bit... I was too hot and tired from wrenching on this thing all day so I took it for a quick hot lap to the store... and wow what a difference...
