big thanks to teddy who got the bearing redone :greenbounce:

[Teddy]

they were absolute bitches to get off.

 

Total time -> 2hours 10 mins

Total people working on it all up -> 5 or so tech's, 2 parts people getting hold of these rareish parts.

Danger level for removing old bearing -> **FARK THAT WAS CLOSE**

 

(*had to put onto hydrolic press to get the barstards off, cutt a long story short, pull the bar to push it off, pull once more... again...*BANG!!!!!!!!!!!* - CLANG-TING-PING BOUNCE KAAANNNG* (remembers bearing sell exploding sending something like 15 ball bearings all over the work shop, outa casing self exploding and boomeraning off the wall, 1 half never recovered, and all the lil metal chunks inside just spraying_everywhere like 3 spray shotguns at once, no one got a scratch ... go figure.)

 

Second one came off as a whole.

 

It was for a good cause anyway.

[Mr Revhead[RL]]

bloody hell!

 

have fun with those.... same set up in the hiluxs and hiaces aswell.... so youll do a few :greenbounce:

[Medicine_Man]

secret is an angle grinder, chisel, hammer, round pipe and sledge hammer, we did the rear wheel bearings in nicks old sunny last weekend..

[Teddy]

lol - we used the angle grinder, chisel, hammer, round pipe on hydrolic press and sledge hammer - it was just so old and rooted, it didnt like the idea of us destroying its little world.

 

ive got the technique happening now, so i know how to do em :doublebird: too bad i can never predict when they are gona explode like shot guns :greenbounce:

[demuire]

I'm needing to do mine soon too (when the LSD arrives)... Any chance of getting some help? :greenbounce:

[Medicine_Man]

If you do it properly, you shouldn't have anything dangerous flying around..

[Teddy]

if i ever have to do them again and detect them in as bad a state as that one was in, ill happily let you do it lol !

 

Fook, i know how to do em; give them to me some time and i can stay back after work one day and do them... but give me notice.

 

*AAHhhhh Teddy, I've missed you!!! Love Spelling :greenbounce:*

**Diff Delmer**

 

Teddy and I attempted to reassemble the diff today, only to realize the little seal that hold the oil in the diff case is the wrong part.

 

The orignal had a soft inner ring with the metal band. The new one has a hard metal case with the soft inner on the inside. There is a metal lip in the diff case were it replaced the hard rubber.

 

WTF do i do???

 

btw the old ones are completely shot
