No, we're not in dragon territory yet.

 

I kinda figgered the basic "where" since we're in the same town (d'oh)--address/gps coords those are more the stuff that helps

 

I live right near the center of town, off of Church Street, down next to McKinstry pond.

 

Its within the 84 belt, well east of me

 

Really off topic but, can anyone explain to me why when I'm trying to resize and image for a signature using BBcode I can't get it to compile correctly? I'm trying to have be a resized image with it linking to a thread; it'll work on the full image but once I try to control that it just spits back out the code instead of the image.

Plus you just gotta know the password, it's not too bad

 

Most forums like this use specialized versions of BBCode, so it may not support the attributes you're trying to add.

Also, technically it isn't compiled, it's interpreted.

 

You coming west?

 

Only if I manage to avoid getting dysentery!

 

Question for you peeps and gal, if you have already had it done... ECGS bearing.

After chatting with Derek on Friday night at the brewery meet up, about how he did his lift himself and ECGS, etc, I've noticed a bit of what I think is "vibration" at certain speeds. Maybe it's just me, maybe it's not. I think that's what happens when it needs to be replaced, right?!

That seems to happen anywhere between 40-60 mph or so. I had been noticing it a bit the week before, but thought it was my tires that needed to be rotated. It was raining on Sunday so I went to Firestone to get my oil change since I was a bit overdue, and they rotated the tires. Still doing it.

So... for those of you that swapped the bearing and experienced the vibration and replaced it, could you "explain" to a NOOB like myself what happened and/or what you felt that indicated it needed to be done?! At what speeds did it vibrate?! Anything that can help I'd appreciate it.

Thinking that if I need it, I'll need to order it along with the tool to pull the bearing, so maybe it can get done when I meet up with Drew to put the suspension in?! Just thinking out loud about things...

 

If you put it in 4hi you should feel it go away

 

I'll have to try that then. If it goes away, does that mean I need to replace it?!

 

99% yes

 

You should get bigger tires ..since your doing the lift..

 

Gotcha. Thanks a lot Rebecca!!! Going to check it on the drive home from work then, since I'll be on the highway.

 

LOL! I think I'm good. Don't want to fork up more money just yet.

 

x2. And since you're going to be in there to replace the bearing, you might as well go LT in the front. What's an extra couple CVs, LCAs and UCAs in the grand scheme of things, really?

 

You guys just want to see me get in trouble.

 

Go big or go home haha

 

True that. Baby steps though... baby steps.
