speaking of the hub, it looks pretty bad i got the first nut off from inside the hub but the one just before the bearing is frozen in.... any suggestions... besides taking the whole nuckle off to get the shaft out and then cutting off the hub, and removing the spindle and replacing it... in last resort i have a spare d30 in the garage i can pull the whole nuckle from and replace
What are u using to get the nut off? I've got the socket that fits it if you don't. Possibly try a little heat? You won't be able to get the knuckle off w/out takin the shaft out because it has to go down enough to get the balljoint studs out.
i was using a screw driver and hammer like a punch, i used that little torch for a sec... im gonna go out and try it again but i think the socket would work alot better, get some leverage on it... let me know when you get home, i might have to go get that socket
So THAT's how it happened!:DQuote:

I saw it on the west side of madisonville about 4-7 miles before 45. I didn't think anything of it though...i shoulda picked it up for you.
I got so tired i started seein' things in the road and pressing the brake and swerving a bit. Then i fell asleep when a car passed me. I got back service and called some people...which helped.
EDIT: i forgot to add....i've got the guts from a 70s waggy d44 at home. I don't know exactly how great everything is but you can have it if you want.
