anyone else know of a better place to mill/drill/tap a D44 knuckle?
http://www.jnutter.com/
i got villas to do it for me and it was the same price or a few bones cheaper
i paid 50 a few years ago at villas. print the cheapest you can find it online and bring it in and tell them you would rather keep your money local and they matched the price i had found. if you go that route you will have to already have the arms and bring them with the knuckles
i tried to get jnutter to do it and that is the infamous picture on here of the bent knuckle with him using a tent stake as a straight edge to tell me if it was bent. I ended up using a guy on ebay for $45 (if i remember). I would check ebay. I don't think that jnutter guy is as reputable as he seems.
Alright can anyone explain to me why you don't see people use .120 wall tubing for steering if you could get the right adapters for your heims? I'm talking about in a full hi- steer situation?
Also what is the thickest plate that can be used with dimple dies?
I think its like people freakin out telling you to use 1/4" for everything where in many applications 3/16" or even 1/8" is just fine. I don't know why you would have a problem using .120 wall for steering. it obviously won't hold up as well to hitting rocks but you already knew that. As long as you don't go bashing it against rocks it will work fine.
full hi-steer? you mean full hydro? Either way, maybe because the weight difference is minimal, the weight's down low, and failure could have very undesirable results? And rock hits on steering components are inevitable
No not full hydro. I'm talking hi steer where both the draglink and tie rod are both on top of the knuckle. By having them on top op the knuckle especially in a leaf sprung setup the steering is protected pretty good.
i used .120 wall 1.25 dia DOM on my mini tierods, but i wouldn't use it for a full length tierod or draglink
Lately my front passenger side brake has been seizing up on the disk making it pull hard to the right and heat up really bad. Anyone have any ideas as to what is causing this?
Sticking caliper?Quote:

i think 3/16 is about that max any thicker and you don't get very much dimple if i remember correctly
yeah i guess, how do you fix that?Quote:

yes, replace or rebuild the caliper. Usually not worth rebuilding it.Quote:

Go ahead and do both, don't cheap out and only do one.
also while your there check on your pads and rotors. your rotors should be smooth with no lips or grooves.
check the unit bearing if is going out it makes the rotor grind the caliper, if your pads are worn at an angle it is that or the sliders are stuck.
its also not a bad idea to use anti sieze when reassembling things
I had the rubber brake line collapse internally on a truck once. It acted like a check valve and would only allow pressure in, and not allow fluid to return, so the caliper just kept getting tighter. It was on a 1998 truck, so really not that old.Quote:

my beaver needs new a new water pump. cheapest i can find is $130, which is retarded. Reckon i could find a 12v one run-of-the-mill pump and it would be sufficient?
Let me get this straight, you can't get your beaver wet anymore???
can you not find a rebuild kitQuote:

I think its that diesel riding mower he posted a while back.
Shat-tastic small tractor with a sweet chrome exhaust tip.
its a small tractor, just a little bigger than your typical riding lawn mower
so its a small tractor about the size of a lawn mower???
