Yup someday, and then I'll re paint when you move to Cali

 

idk if ill ever move to cali, girl will make more money elsewhere and i have to follow where she goes since she funds the shop

 

Yup and I'll repaint haha

 

im commited to my steering angle mod now..just cut 1 of the spindles! everything lines up on the jig perfectly ill tack weld and make sure it clears the rotor, take it apart and weld it up!! neat ****!

 

neat looks good packing everything full of grease and setting aside until after powdercoat...then it all goes together clears my rotors perfectly!

 

nice and pink on the inside..just like i like it!

 

Why did you need to weld in the bearing races? I'm assuming those roller bearings have something to with it?

 

the reason i welded inside on the races is because there is no way to get the bearing raced out of the hub....welding inside (esp with a tig and no rod) heats the metal up super fast...it magically allows the old crap races to just fall right out...if not they move enough to get a punch to knock them out...

 

**** looks goooooooood

 

gotcha, great idea

 

thanks :P i tried all kinds of **** to get it out..this was the only thing that worked....

 

Finally, someone else who knows this trick! I've been recommending this for years because it is the only easy way to get the races out. No need to dremel a groove as many of the vendors suggest. Just MIG or TIG a ring around the inside of the race, let everything cool, then bang the hub on the bench and the races pop right out. I also weld two little "ears" on the ring in case I need to use a punch. Just did this last week, actually.

 

haha nice..glad someone else knows it it truely works great!

 

keep it up dude!

 

wheel bearings done, everything cleaned, powdercoated and spindles modded

 

that's an interesting colour for your drivetrain

 

silly guy heh thats not mine...thats a 240sx transmission im rebuilding for a friend

 

big brake is well...big...

 

nice fab work!

 

thanks! lots more to come, i wont get to see the steering angle until i get some different rims...but its done and fits up nice

 

gotta get some spacers and/or some different rims for the front....this is good enough to roll around the garage on!

big brake kit is a nice tight fit...looks

 

Awesome, welcome to the club
