Colorado B.S. Thread

I know I'm late but I haven't been working so I haven't really been on TW as much...So Happy New Years!

 

looking for someone who can do a ECGS needle bearing replacement on a 2011 tundra (same as tacoma from what im told)

 

Maybe I should just replace the two that are getting low

 

There are other threads??

Looks like ECGS says it’s a 9” clamshell. we only have the removed tool for 8”.
there’s a good chance we could get it out but it’s risky we damage it and can’t get it out.

 

These ones.

 

Been down that road once.... Don't wanna do it again

 

Knock on wood...

Yours is the only one we’ve ever broke the tool on...

Feel proud! Lol it did not want to give up that bearing.

 

That was a long day. I appreciate you Josh.

 

I figured u had already when you said your cabinets were empty

If you have taken a tig class you could probably zip that tire together with a mig without too many worries

 

You mocked me last week, so before I left my place for the weekend, I put a 6-pack in the fridge. When I got back today I saw that I had beer, so I was able to crack two beers tonight without having to go outside.

My not-quite-OCD doesn't like the MIG splatter... :grinder-emoji:

 

If I ended up getting setup with a TIG welder, I'd probably go crazy with making my own sliders, rear plate bumper with swingout, LCAs and then I'd have to go down the path of learning CAD so I could start subbing out machining of custom parts…

Edit: never mind... I see you responded already lol

 

Shouldn't have much splatter at all with MIG unless you're doing it wrong

 

This is the way
