Do i smell a story coming?

 

always more training

 

You know I like this....

Soon. Very soon. My truck will have a proper set of tires on it again.

 

What kind of Crocs are those?

 

New Bravo chassis for my Tikka Tac A1. Match in Raton on Sunday.

Anybody looking for a used Tac A1 chassis and/or Tikka T3 mags?

 

Shout out to @05Taco4x4 for getting me a set of quality bearing hub assemblies in a very timely manner. Quality product, great price, and a superb packaging job. Thank you.

 

I’m always interested...

This should be delivered Tuesday next week

 

X2. That dude has pressed a lot of bearings for a lot of folks. I had the exact same experience and felt the exact same say after dealing with him. Great communication too.

 

The original bearings went out shortly after I lifted the truck at 40k miles. I rebuilt the hubs myself at that time and what a pain in the ass to get the old bearings out! My truck now has almost 240k on it and for the price of these it’s not even worth headache again.
Now to acquire some tie rods and I’ll be back in business. Any suggestions for tie rods or is OEM the way to go?

 

200k out of the second set of bearings? Not bad.

 

Try CVJ Axles in Denver.

 

Just hit Bill Moore lake trail last weekend outside Empire. Couldn’t reach the lake due to snow less then 1 mile from summit, but original trail is technical enough for 33’s, and high clearance routes had me on sliders twice. Good trail for late spring, early summer.

 

Are you using wheel spacers? I use Moog TRE’s. They have zerk fittings and really take a beating.

 

Yes spacers up front and I think the ones I have on there now are Moogs. Might just go back with them.

 

Yea I just thought about that after I posted those #s. I guess I don’t beat on my truck hard enough.

 

Thanks for the suggestion. A few others directed me there but they only take OEM and this one is not. Still storing it along with too many other parts I don't need

 

Wheel spacers are tough on wheel bearings. Glad the second time around was better.

 

Gotcha. What brand is it?

 

Just hit 50 messages! I have a ton of parts to sell. I’ll post them here first for you greedy little trd geeks.
