torque multiplier?

 

sounds awesome! I want to see someone do RCLT so I can decide the ultimate fate of my truck.

What are you going to do with the cab mount? Relocate it?

 

Yeah, been a while since I had to use it. Practically had to stand on it with the multiplier to get it to budge. Not sure what the tq spec is, but the rebuild shop must have used a hydraulic wrench to put them on. It does smash rock and concrete daily so its gotta be tight AF to keep it clamped together. The chassis came loose and the breaker body.

 

Red goat fab relocate kit, might have to rework my sliders so i can have enough clearance.

 

least you got it off though! They dont use multipliers here hardly ever. Pretty much its torque wrenches, HYTORC (hydralic), and then a few other methods for when it really needs to not move lol. Doing 600 FT-LBs with a dial wrench is quite an event. 6 foot long handle, one person reading the dial, and the other pulling hard as they can lol

 

That's where this tool would come in handy, i could stretch it over the axle. as fars as the boot not rebounding back to its original diameter on the axle, i have no experience with that. I would hope it would return to its normal size.

It would be nice if it was buy once cry once, but this is going on my 7th and 8th axles, so its becoming a lot more expensive than I want considering its $500 bucks each time lol. So if i can replace them my self the boot kits are only $50 each.

 

Daaaaaamn. You ever think about lowering your suspension a little? Sounds like your CV angle is fucked. I've only gone through 1 set in 4yrs/47k.

 

I ordered some stickers for my service truck at work. Just came in the mail today.

 

Where did you order those from?

 

Right!! Yeah each time I've changed axles I've lowered them. This time ill probably go as low as i can before the rake is absurd lol.

 

Geek app. It's all crap from China. Typically it takes up to a month to receive your order. This item took 2wk. I ordered them on June 21st. They were "free" but I had to pay $6 S&H, they listed in a 3pk, and I ordered 2pks at $3 S&H on each. They charge shipping on each item quantity.

Weird, my cousin gets hired on working with you...then these stickers need to be bought

 

Just a coincidence. My boss's kid and another kid, both 22 are always leaving my tools where they last worked. I find all my shit that they forgot or didn't put away when I follow them around checking the fixes they made on equipment or the crusher. Good thing our crusher has a tramp magnet. Ive found some of my sockets and box end wrenches when first firing it up after they where replacing skirt rubber or adjusting something in the feeder. I told my boss I was going to make a signout/sign-in sheet for my service truck.

 

Sean’s actually very good about putting tools back in(not always in the right place, but they’ll be in the general area). He’s one of the only people who i don’t have a problem knowing where i hide my spare box key

 

Anyone have ESPN+? Need to figure out how to stream the UFC on my laptop this weekend

 

Is anyone planning to watch fireworks near ocean shores tomorrow? I'll be heading out there with the family tomorrow afternoon.

 

Arent you running Icon "mid travel" front shocks and rocking a like 285/75/r16 tire?

 

Dont they still do the 7 day free trail? Just sign up and then cancel after the event.

 

@JimSnell I’m thinking about picking up a set of used Fox shocks. What’s all needed to do a rebuild?
