Well I guess if you have the time to mess with it have at it Stink. Its all I can do to replace the parts after I buy them, let alone MANUFACTURE the parts myself.

I hear ya on that.

On the hubs, no wobble, just a little "play". I'm gonna tighten and see what happens.

Thanks,
Blue

Thanks Blue, the only way I can afford to boat, fish and hunt like I do is to save every penny i can when I can. If I didnt Id have to give something up. I live beyond my means ut without going in debt...get it?


Beyond that I enjoy building something myself...lots of fun. I also have a pretty easy job....I work way harder after work than during. I got 4 yards to cut between now and saturday for more "play" money. ;)

I got the point!! I have built so many things that I could have bought cheaper if I counted my time!

But being poor the way I am, I am like you if I want it, its going to be fixed with bailing wire and chewing gum! What ever it takes!

[Stinky_Hooker]

Yeah thats kinda the point...time I got ...money I dont. ;)


What the hell else am I gonna do sit in front of a computer and bi#@$% about how I coulda bought it "cheaper" and piss and moan about my foot?? :D


;)

BR be sure your hub still spins absolutely freely before you put the wheel back on, just a slight resistance will heat everything up on the road ;)

I tear crap up for a living ;) Seriously, I work in a test lab where we life test ovens, my job alot of the time is very destructive. I can assure you that you couldn't possibly use the self clean function enough times in your life to kill them. A UL test we do is to drop a 5 lb steel ball 5' on the door glass to see if it breaks, it usually does, but there are times it don't. Too bad management sucks, otherwise there couldn't be a better job.
