We're having a GTG/wrenching day this coming Saturday to install Pete's injectors brother. Drop on by and we'll take a look at your truck!

I got a buddy of mine thats going to take a look at it and tell me whats all involved, I got multiple problems going on(gear noises) and with work, weather and limited family time, I'm disapointed I couldn't tackle this job, especially with everybody's help here, which I appreciate greatly. I really need to start upgrading tool wise, theres nothing more disapointing than having a problem and not having what you need to do the job, basic tools just ain't cutting it anymore. More to come tomorrow.

Just hang in there, relax, everything will come together. That's what friends are for. Were all here if you need us, in whatever capacity we can help out.

I hear yaa Barney, guess its my turn, this stinks man. Your right Wayne, it'll work out, he's a friend of the family and sliding business his way helps him. I've always done things myself, to my abilities that is.

OK guys, got the hub installed 2 weeks ago and got pics of the new Timken 515020 coarse thread but found out I had the fine threaded studs, no biggie, he just swapped out the old ones but if anybody is looking for a fine thread stud hub the Timken part number is 515021. I got pics of the new hub but not the old one yet, my camera is acting goofy, it'll come later, hopefully. Anyways, a 60.00 hub swap was a deal and a half, here it is, isn't it pretty, maybe a lamp idea Jim??? Also, the front grinding I was hearing up front is gone but the bearings in the old hub didn't look shot, not sure what that all means but no grinding anymore with the new one.
