Documentation / Re: 75 PowerWagon rotor replacement
January 06, 2015, 08:22:25 AM
Yeah Gunner, first of all, he should've never used semi-metallic brake pads or he wouldn't have had to change out that rotor to begin with.  I use composites and still have the original rotors on my '78.   :)

Second, the entire bearing set must be replaced even if just one component of it gets messed up.  They are matched sets and the stack should be installed exactly how they are packaged in the box.

Third, that spindle nut should never, ever be backed off.  Those are torqued to a minimum of 100 ft.-lbs. and further tightened until the slots line up with the hole in the axle end.

What a 'tard...  LOL   :tard: :tard:

And BTW, don't use those orange seals.  The factory green ones (SKF/Chicago Rawhide) are thicker and stay lodged in the steering knuckle and bearing cap bores much better.   ;D

The rear doors of that panel pickup seem to be quite similar to those on this particular RC...

Ya' know... that movie was 25+ years ago - she probably looks like our MOMS by now:o  :o  :o

That's what time travel is for, WW.   ;)

The wife usually. She tells me "street lights are on, time to come in."  ;D

One of your reloads ought to take care of that problem, Chuck.  The streetlight, that is.   :D

I was just hoping it hadn't fired the retro-rockets, and landed in 1987 San Fransisco - thereby either destroying a certain D-7 Klingon Brid-of-Prey, OR, the earth itself!  :o

So what brings you out of the darkness, and over to the GOOD side?  ;D

I was looking for a pair of humpback whales, WW, but more specifically, that little hottie who takes care of them.   8)

Anybody watching Comet Ison today?  It was overcast here, and we couldn't see it.

And like MOST gummint websites, this one doesn't work EITHER::)

http://sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov/data/realtime/c3/512/

ISON passed around the sun today, WW, and preliminary media reports indicate it may have disintegrated.

Of course, we can't always count on the media now, can we?...





Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!!!   ;D

I'm sure Pee Wee Herman could've used a private box at the movie threater, Dean, but unfortunately for him, he didn't.   ;D
