Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

Some serious advice. Put the bearing in the freezer for a few hours before you press it in. Be easier to get in.

 

Oh I was just messing around. I thought they were the Polly bushings you were taking about. May be I should go have a drink now

 

That's what I have heard. But metal doesn't shrink much when cold. How does putting them in a freezer help?

 

I'll have one with ya, cheers

 

Metal expansion and contraction is real, yo.

.0000064 inches per degree (Fahrenheit) in expansion, I don’t recall offhand if contraction is the same. I remember AvE saying something about it on a video of his some time ago.

 

you recall the expansion off hand though, damn yo.
impressed.

 

When I read about it a long time ago they mentioned a nickname for it, for the 5 preceding zeros. I don’t remember the nickname, but I remember the zeros.

 

Damn...that's a very small change, but I guess every bit helps especially when I comes to tight fits.

 

That's what I was thinking....NERD ALERT! Lol

 

says the engineer ...

This is the contraction video I was trying to remember.

 

I'm a sandwich artist bro, not engineer anymore lol.

 

Fkn sandwich nerd. @K_Sandhu

 

Just coat the outside with antiseeze, they usually slide in easy.

 

Love that dude's videos.

 

"that's what she said"

 

I think it's going to be a long night. This little chump doesn't want to sleep. I will be researching on feeezinf my bearings till midnight.

 

Holy hair!

 

Cool to see Rivian continuing to build something unique. Might jumpstart electric truck platforms across the auto industry if successful.
