Ontario BS Thread

@Tridet167 i think the only legal place to go is Raysplace but I’m thinking it’s a pretty beefy trail, like 35’s and up. Unless we do unmaintained roads and possibly some of the “rally of abandon Ontario” routes for back roads.

 

I heard Ray's can be challenging. Anything would be good since weekends get boring closed indoors now. There's only so much PS4 I can handle.

 

Haha I hear ya. I’ll see what I can plan. Still have to get my truck sprayed though.

 

Getting mine done tomorrow

 

How did you do it?

 

I have a cable and tech stream...and mad puter skills!

 

i see i see!
what other updates are there? like for anything else? I did one for the head unit already

 

I've done the head unit as well when I flashed another local's buggy. There are some other customizations that can be done, door chime off, how long lights stay on, seat belt chime and such.

 

I still need to get it

 

Whatcha need to get...thought you got TSB done at the dealer

 

After almost two months, this hub/bearing assy I ordered finally arrived. BamaToy sent it late due to hiding from Hurricane Michael, then the shipment got caught up in the Canada Post strike. In hindsight, it was fortunate @NeonHeights sold me his spare so I could replace the visibly bad passenger front bearing. Now I'm replacing the driver side bearing as a preventative measure:

 

I have the passenger side to do, starting to make some noise. It's my third in 2 years. Something isn't right on that side.

 

I mean tech stream

 

Ahh, easy enough to get

 

Maybe too much water is leaking into the spindle cavity. Did the bearing come with a new O-ring on the shoulder? Did you replace the inner CV seal?

 

What about torqued properly? Over tightening can cause premature wear.

 

^On the axle nut? It's possible (and very tempting to tighten with just a 1/2" impact and giving it a few ugga-duggas).

Since @Tridet167 is running an aftermarket spindle with his 4" lift, it's also possible the axle seals are more finicky.

 

Very possible. Definitely premature wear considering I am on my second set of wheel bearings in close to 200kms. I don’t wheel a a lot but big tires, weight and what not.

 

Only replaced the bearings at the mechanics so not sure about the seal but I would assume it comes with one. mechanic would have noticed that.

Again mechanic so don't know.

I'm thinking it's the stressses of the lift that's causing it. Unless there's something needing repair.

 

Your cv angles aren’t really crazy and your not running crazy wheel spacers or offsets right? leaves the mounting surface of the wheel bearing on the spindle
