wheres this damn washer go?

shits huge

i shouldve paid more attention

8/29/2005 11:18:53 AM

Go the Advanced Auto and get the book on your car. Those Hayes manuals rule.

8/29/2005 11:24:39 AM

Haynes manuals suck

fuck spending more money

i might do it anyways though

8/29/2005 11:26:26 AM

washer goes before the nut

8/29/2005 11:31:50 AM

pack em in with an hammer

8/29/2005 11:33:15 AM

should be

seal ~ inner brg ~ outer brg ~ washer ~ main nut ~ castellated nut (nut cover) ~ cotter pin ~ dust cover

^yep, that should be pretty close. washer goes against the outer bearing to preload.

8/29/2005 12:12:22 PM

hang a fish scale on one of the wheel studs and pull on it while tightening the outer nut. You want between 3 and 5 lbs of preload showing on the fish scale.

8/29/2005 1:27:50 PM

haha damn nigger you have fish scales just sitting around?

not i

but this shit is done

now i have brakes to bleed

someone come help

8/29/2005 2:16:37 PM

Actually, this nigger keeps a fish scale in his tool box specifically for this purpose.

Top that BITCH!

8/29/2005 2:50:12 PM

8/29/2005 4:08:01 PM

8/29/2005 4:11:16 PM

i just do it, like i was taught by an old timer years and years ago

i cannot explain how, but i dont use any fishing apparatus

8/29/2005 5:52:14 PM

tighten until the wheel turns freely, but there is no side to side play. maybe a 1/4 turn more, if that.

8/29/2005 6:01:59 PM

i had to do it on my aerostar. like they said. tighten that shit but make sure the wheel can still turn
