    Try these Mosquito Magnets or DynaTraps

    I have one of those dynatraps, an older model (that I need to replace the lights in :anonymous:) and it works great. You need to clean out the base pan frequently or you'll end up with bug soup. I let the light run all night during active season and the fan pulls the bugs down into the tray. Works for more than just mosquitos.

    Hey guys long time no talk....lots been going on up here in Alaska.
    Well a couple weeks ago I noticed a leak coming from the driver side rear backing plate...the infamous seal/bearing replacement time! I went ahead and bought the tool this time...the last rig I did this repair on was an 85 pickup and i just improvised...lol. The tool is a must have imo.
    Anyways...2 questions. I got everything pressed together and got the axles back in. I swapped the retainers as per timmy the toolmans video, then used a sharpie to find the witness line(where the seal rides on the retainer) i set the both at 5mm in. The passenger side is right in the middle, the driver side is only a few mm on the retainer. Should I send it?
    Another thing I noticed after reassembly it I can move both shafts in and out maybe a few mm, is this normal?? Didnt notice before I tore it apart...
    Thanks for any feedback guys!

    Good to see you again!

    it is quite possible you never took notice of the axle movement.

    Because of the design your always going to have some movement .
