suspension is off and ready for the perches to get a little lovin' :)
BTW, it is starting to get HOT outside! Attachment 231060 Attachment 231061 |
Now your talking my language Pictures lmao. Looks like you be on your way to a great start . Housins looking sexy lol .. I hear some guys freeze bearing before pressing do you know why ? Mine where frozen I didn't question guy since he has been building for over 30 years and his cars are wow bad ass . His son Jeremy lowe is a rookie drifter look him up. Anyways good luck Bro
|
never heard of that but I am just going to follow the manual :) keep is easy
good luck to you as well. |
I have a new addition to my sig.
also freezing them makes them slightly smaller so they press in easier. they obviously still need to be cold when you try and press them in. |
damn Shady, you really do seem to be the only one here with a straight up answer :)
and I understand the concept of freezing them but does that actually make a difference? probably cant hurt thats for sure |

LOL no, installing those is on the list though, I'm going to get the diff microblued while its out... I was talking the upper and lower control arms... Imagine the diff bushings x4 but much smaller. |

If you use an air chisel to remove the bushings it is quite a bit easier :)

if you do get those get the softer of the two shore hardness ones avail - unless you enjoy lots of vibration transfer ...
