My New Daily Driver - Little Red/Danger Ranger VI

[PaleBlue90]

gotta do the hubs tomorrow , and figure out how to add grease to the wheel bearings without taking the rotor off ( stuff in there seems to have melted )

id just pull it all apart and repack them if there ok. if they have been heated up id replace them......i had one fail and self-destruct on me

i checked the outer bearing when i had it apart , no heat affected area , no brinelling or spalling , so i pupled ford wheel bearing grease in the opening and shoved the bearing back in , i love having working 4x4

putting on the "Jeep" hubs

[WNY964x4]

well i figured i would bring this back from the dead , i have some pics form a little mud fun , and am gonna take pics tomorrow of my stickers i added , hopefully doing a backrack soon

had some fun in the mud with her

took the parts truck frame , engine and axle in for scrap

 

[WNY964x4]

well still no backrack , she is going under the knife ina week or so , getting new ball joints , shocks , springs , axleshaft u-joints , valve covers , gaskets , plugs , wires , and a Ford Trac-Lok diff , and the plastic diff cover off my other axle , i added a pic of the shifter i fabbed up over the weekend

o , and i am contemplating a LEER 180 Cap for my truck , what do you guys think ?

the knob is off an International Paystar 5000 10-Wheel Dump , Eaton Fuller 8LL Trans

 

[WNY964x4]

well a buddy had it on the lift today doing the oil change and he found a leaking front axle pinion seal , so that has to be fixed

 

[WNY964x4]

Well i have all my parts amassed for it going under the knife on monday , she is gonna be so much nicer once she is done , will post pics of the progress

 

[WNY964x4]

got the roll bar fabbed up

got a roll bar on her now , gonna add 2 more light tabs , so i can run 5 KC's

 

[WNY964x4]

well , got the door ajar light fixed , she goes into the shop tomorrow to start tearin apart to do all the driveline work , though the teacher who's class is doin the ball joints thinks back-asswards , he want to wait to do the ball joints when they have the front apart to do the u-joints , and i ordered 4 tires for it today , Kumho Road Venture A/T KL78's

O , and the same teacher that is doing the ball joints that way is refusing to do my shocks and springs


So what does everyone think of it , i will post more pic's as she progresses
