1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

That's right. 12lbs is it. Though I've set these by feel back in the old days. I think the F150 might have been the last one with disc brakes and bearings that I did by feel. Most were back in the old days of drum brakes.

Keep us posted on getting those front bearings set up. I'm curious what method you end up liking best on getting that preload set.

 

Will do. I need to find a puller to pull out the axle for using a feeler gauge to set the snap ring thickness. I need to find a simpler way to pull out the axle to do this.

 

I did the by feel method on my moms 100 series bearings a few months ago for the 2nd time ever 1st was on a isuzu and they're still noise free and roll smoothly

I dont see the point of the fish scale procedure just sorta guesstimate the torque, spin the hub, tighten or loosen as needed

 

WTF, I wonder if that has actually happened.

 

@Das it mang



Neighbor needs to catch up and paint his wheels

 

So people are actually doing this? Renting a uhaul to swap their cheby motors for the rental motor? That's a great idea and kinda fucked up at the same time.

 

It's not exactly new. People do it with tires or other valuable items that they don't care to notice.

 

Pretty sure i shared that like 3 days ago

At least i did to my 4 runner friends

 

You posted it here too.
