Nah, it's simple stuff. I went in and started changing out my upper/lower balljoints and TRE's inner/outer plus sleeves and now I'm going to have to tear it down to the wheel bearings 'cause they sound pretty rough. I know I just repacked them a couple years ago...LOL!! ANYWHO, I can only get me time when the kids are asleep and now I'm fighting a cold. wah wah wah poor me...

 

oh cool that doesnt sound so bad......man if you were closer I'd lend a hand, tore apart a few ifs suspensions in my time.....sucks about the cold thou hope you shake it off before saturday

 

No worries, I appreciate the offer! The cold is goin away, it was enough to slow me down a little. I still need to get a pull gauge so I can set the preload drag on the bearings and get an alignment...that's after I get it all back together! I had to make a axle nut socket out of left over exhaust tubing 'cause(and even after ten years) I didn't have one...

Breakfast is tasty!

 

I'm still trying to make it coming from Oak Harbor via Everett as long as I can get the front end put back together. I had a little SNAFFU last night.

I'll be bringing the kiddies along(ages 2ish and 5ish) too with my buddy in Everett. So, I'll be wanting to do low speed trails and what not.

 

Right on! Hope you get it back together. there will be alot of stock rigs and kids so the tahuya 4x4 loop trail should be just right for you.

I plan on keeping my rig in 2wd most of the time

 

Sounds great, I should be good to go. I got the only inner hub/bearing seals in Oak Harbor today and that's what was holding me up. It'll be put back together tonight and into the shop to double check the alignment tomorrow.
