The u bolts were a bust today. I couldn't break them loose. So I lubed again and went about peeping the spindles for paint and deciding if I should replace the wheel bearings in the front hub assembly Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I just don't want to wind up missing a digit or limb. I can sometimes get in a hurry to get results.
I dropped an 11 or 12 mm on top of my motor several years ago. Couldn't find it with my bore camera. I suspect at some point I'll have enough off the top that it too will turn up. Frame cleaning looking good.
They call it hammer tone grey/silver. I guess it's just a mixture of powder, They first zinc primer the parts, the apply a coat of the silver, then black then a clear over it. It's almost 1/8 thick in spots and I have had to grind some off in areas to allow parts to fit. I like the way it turned out Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That's a great rebuild Dave!Way past a normal repairSeems to be a lot of that around here!
Looks good and I see there is plenty of red grease to get on all the clean parts.

She would blame you As for the size 35/12.50(closer to 13.50) 17 inch wheel. I am really impressed. I can't bark the tires on corners or in the wet road. It holds great to the freeway and handles a hard downshift like a champ where the old BFGs would break loose on the freeway keeping you from moving in the direction of travel I want to go.
