Finally figured out why I was getting notifications about the february thread... My watch says its the 29th!

Last night/today I got the truck on jackstands. Driver side inner hub seal, inner and outer bearings, rotors, pads done. Did some research and I think I figured out how to install the Warn Premium lock out hub.

Had to drive the lug studs out and back in with a BFH and a socket in the vise I keep in the truck.

Hoping to finish up the drivers side and do the passenger side tomorrow. Hopefully the snow and this warm weather holds out.

Then hopefully the snow stays and I can get a ski/snowboarding lesson from my buddy up at UB this coming weekend.

Was hoping to finish driver side today but got called into cover a shift at work.
How is it going Neil? Shawn? Shaun? Everyone else?

Morning NY, Neil, Eric, Steve, Angelo, and all.
I see Syracuse came down to Virginia and got an old-fashioned butt whipping.

Syracuse basketball, Eric. For a long time they were ranked # 1 in the country.
University of Virginia beat them by 19 points.

Hi guys. No snow here sun is shinning, 67*. Even finished getting the trailer put together and ready for inspection.

Eric. I don't follow BBall much (x wrestling coach) until we came down to VA. Most of the ACC games are televised, even pre-empting regular programs.

Had to shovel before getting to work today

New Warn Premium installed

Driver side done. Got the passenger side apart but think I will wait till monday to get into the schools shop and press the lug studs in. Did the driver side by hand and it was a big PITA.

Eric, that pic reminds me of when we used to work on our vehicles in the parking lot at Oswego.
Just love the "Open-air Garage".

It is definitely an adventure. Did wheel bearings, seals, rotors, pads, and locking hubs.

I just prefer it to be a little warmer and a little less wet. But it was at least in the high 20's - low 30's today.

Edit: 19 degrees.
