    i know i asked before but is there a tool or knack for popping off the cover over the front wheel hub? maybe i was too gentle but it didnt seem to budge.

    also what do i need to drive the bearings and seals out/in?

    TIA

    It just got new fluid, can't be that unhappy. Never had an issue towing with even the weakest of manuals.

    I'll certainly be embarrassed if I stall it with a trailered load though.

    Could you please not add a light bar? It is against my religion and I find light bars offensive.

    I had this can mixed at Napa nearly 6 years ago when I color matched my grill surround. I didn't think it would be any good anymore but despite zero prep, it turned out to work surprisingly well.

    I didn't bother to prep since the whole thing will get repainted anyway. Staying with Lunar Mist!

    I see a few people are against light bars?? or is it jokes? I was never really a fan of them.
    your truck is your truck so do as you will.. probably will look good anyways cause it is a 1st Gen.

    Mostly, jokes. But I'm a fan of pods over huge bars.

    Your pressing in new wheel bearings?

    Good luck.

    Supposed to be the hardest thing ever. Read plenty of stories on them breaking 20 ton presses
