So what did it take to pull your hubs, I am quite stuck at this point(but harvesting them from a 911)
Is there a tool or what? |

I remove the bearing retainer plate, set the arms on the edge of the table and start pounding with the following tools!!

I realize this is the Mickey Mouse way to do it but I couldn't find my Bearing tap extension so I had to improvise!! I wouldn't want to use the bearings after removal anyway!

Just in case you are trying to do this while it is still in the car, there is a certain order you need to remove things!
After removing the Wheels, brakes and rotor then: 1. Remove the Axels 2. Tap hub out 3. Remove Bearing retainer plate 4. Tap out bearing out Jeff |

Things are still progressing! I have most of the parts powder coated and ready to reasemble! I am still cleaning the motor and I just found out my alternator was bad so I guess I wont make it for the 27th breakfast!! Oh well, maybe the next one!!

looks good Jeff.....are you selling the /6 or keeping it?
not that I have personal experiance......but you might be interested to know that out on Vasco Rd they installed some automatic speed limit signs that tell you what your current speed is......I "heard" that they flip out and flash 0 and 70 when passed while going a little over 130 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

Yep, I saw those last week when I was doing the inspection on my new place!! I didn't test the 130 mph thing though....every time I go up there I see at least 3 Highway Patrol pulling someone over!! That is one hell of a fun road at top speed though!!
QUOTE are you selling the /6 or keeping it? I plan on keeping it unless I find one already done well and I can make a quick buck selling this one! The house is my focus right now!! You'll have to come out and hang on the dock some time Mueller, we are almost neighbors! Jeff |
