Calling all Virginians (Tidewater area)

Put me to a maybe, might have to work . If I am able to make just need to do the bumper and winch install.

On a side not, girlfriend coming down next weekend and I was wanting to go down to the outerbanks. What beach do you guys normally go to as far as driving down there? Which station do you get the pass at? I have been looking at the map on their website and just dont know the best one to go to. Thanks!

 

I'm in corolla right now, staying for a few days. Beach is really nice and this time of year there's hardly anyone here.

 

Do you need a permit for corolla? Everything I have found has shown that the only place you need a permit is Cape Hattaras, am I wrong there?

Are you fishing there?

 

This....you won't need a permit for this beach.

 

I need a LINE WRENCH set to change the rear brake lines. Anyone have one for Saturday?

i have a line wrench for brakes, but slimeboob has it and wont return it

 

Well tell him to give it to me. Tell him I promise Ill return it back to him

 

Aint that some shit

 

Brake fittings have a nasty rep for rounding, even with a line wrench. Make sure you have a bubble flare kit, replacement line, and unions handy!


I can't be there. Have to move two fridges. Freezer side quit on one fridge... Cold beer in the garage!

Now that I have a place with a garage, I might be up to host a mod day in Portsmouth. I have to get all of my stuff in order first. Air compressor works, welder needs an outlet wired in... Still better than living in a shoebox 1 br apt though.

 

Im replacing the line with an extended line. I dont think I need a bubble flare kit (do I?)...

 

You need a bubba flair

 

I forget which way that line is connected. If you have to remove the hard brake line, and the line turns off with the nut, yes, you'll want a replacement.
I have to take another look at mine. I'll get back to you.

 

So just rotated tires today I found that I need to replace the passenger side wheel bearing. Seen a few of you guys talking horror stories on here, how hard is this to actually accomplish? she's got maybe a 1/4" wobble in it hope to god I can make it to my new duty station with it how it is, not sure if I have enough time left here to fix it before I go

 

No bueno, she gon explode

 

A replacement what ? You are really confusing me here.

I have a replacement brake line. That's the whole idea, Im replacing the OEM brake line with an extended brake line. As far as I know, I just need a line wrench .

Ship parts overnight and replace this weekend. My god, these thrucks and wheel bearings ...

 

i did mine with open end wrenches its only one line you are replacing

 

you think so? I've drove much longer with way worse off wheel bearings in my previous truck

j00 think it could be done on saturday?

 

No j00 be fine to wait til Saturday. Come Tuesday though, 'splosions!!

 

I f*cking hate 'splosions! Would it be an amazing idea just to do both at da same time? Oh and Tuesday I'll be in WI, an explosion is the last thing that state needs after what happened Monday night! God damn replacement refs!

 

Yes, I happen to be a bearing guru. (Not really) but I did do mine in 1 day. J00 will need a press my friend.
