Oh so boils down to to much excitement before surgery. I understand.
I guess it will be on your to do list for 2020.
Craig I am going to attempt to get out of town around noon I'm out running some errands picking up some ice mailing off some bills and then I'll stop and get the car and top off the gas check the oil and get on the road I hope to see you guys late this afternoon.
 
next question for you guys should I bring my swinger or my pickup
 
So this week I'm gonna try the full on rebuild on the polara's front suspension. In previous goes, I always sprung for the rebuilt LCAs, this time though, I'm gonna rebuild them myself. Been watching the clips on how to do it, seems pretty straight forward. Anyone have any last minute tips?

Last minute tips...

Watch your fingers so you don't smash them.... :eek: :mad:
 
I was just thinking. Would an electric heat gun expand the arm enough to allow the bushing to enter more easily without damaging the new bushing?

My head guy uses dry ice to cool the valve seats to shrink them a little to make them easier to press in...

That's a good idea, heat the hole and cool the shaft to make it easier to press in.... (That's what she said.... :D )
 
I'm a fan of using heat to a modest amount to assist press type situations. We were disassembling a big cone crusher to replace liners. The bowl and liner screw into the frame, keeping in mind that it's about 5' inside diameter. When things are good it will unscrew with a crane taking some of the weight and a 2 1/2T come-along. This one not so much, crane and a 988 Cat loader and cable to unscrew it, nothing. 4 propane burners for about 3 hours and try it again and it moves grudgingly. Get it unscrewed and start looking around in there I find a 1/2"nc nut sitting in the female threads with scrape marks that was impeding our progress. It had fallen in during a previous adjustment and was locking the bowl to the frame, one little nut :eek:. At one time we had the 988 and a Cat rock truck pulling at the same time and it would not move :rofl:

I bet that 'drove you nuts'....
