This one was steep!




Ok story for this one, we were leaving and I saw a wash out I didnt see when we were playing around. Tried it and found out I need limiting straps up front, yes that is my passenger side coil.

And back where it belongs!

Heres the big problem of the day. we got on the road and my truck pulled me right to the side of the road. Inner wheel bearing seized to the spindle


My wife loves watching sunsets, but didnt like this one so much lol! Ended up waiting for a friend with a trailer got home at about 9pm. Long event full day but we had fun!
 
I hope you don't have to go through what I did a month ago. I work on school buses for a living and we had a wheel bearing seize on a spindle. No freaking amount of bashing and grinding would get the rest of that damn bearing off. We eventually had to replace the whole spindle. If it comes down to it all you should have to replace besides the bearings is the outer axle shaft. Good luck with that and keep us updated.
 
join the club my pos is down to i think i blew a head gasket not sure have not had time to check it working alot

Is that why it seemed you were running on five cylinders last Friday? That really sucks.
 
My '97 had that happen but it didn't take out the hub & Rotor just had to pound out the race and all was well, Nice looking ride though.
