Okay great stuff whats next?
I think it's "Damian running himself silly trying to finish things up a week before he thought RMIHR was going to be".. which was supposed to culminate in Robert picking up the chassis yesterday, but I don't know if that happened yet or not (seems he's having Travelette problems).
Then the small bearing spindles end up being LARGE bearing spindles ~ called in and got those machined.
I need to make a run to Napa and get some more hardware (thanks tom) for the spindles.
Yes. They fit now. Took quite a bit of machining...but Warner was able to crank them out.So do the F150 hub/rotors fit on there now?
A likely story! You just wanted to see me sweat....Background story is I bought "small bearing" spindles off Ebay months ago and had 'em shipped directly to D&C, then sent down the F150 hub/rotors a month or two ago (after the spindles had been sent) so I never had a chance to test-fit the parts or confirm that the spindles I bought were the spindles I thought I was buying.![]()
Proof you wanted to see me sweat! DANA60 locknuts! They didn't fit...and I even tried welding them on.Should have been spindle nuts in the box I sent. I sent down some used nuts I had so you'd be able to put it all together well 'nuff.
I understand that! No need to throw everything in now when its got to be taken apart anyway.Again, more background, is that I didn't send down tons of "good stuff" (new wheel seals, new bearings, calipers, etc) since the housing doesn't have any axle shafts (I think there are some Alloy USA shafts going in) and I knew I would have to tear down the front end again anyhow - at least to get the shafts in, plus it will still need the 5.86 gears installed.
Still no news from Rob.![]()
