Pot hole .....Roy to the rescue>>>>

Post by Monk »

Well going into a drive threw, my back rear tire falls into a hole. Was a hard hit , didn't think much about it,


Lol, looked under my truck, and noticed my hub was black, (oil covered) sooooo I call the hummer man Roy,

As per usual he's say bring her down. (Gotta love when one has all these parts on hand)

So we replace the hub input seal, and replace output flanges, (as my others were pitted bad on the shaft)


I'm staring blankly at my truck and Roy tells me to raise my hand, basically playing hot/cold till I touch a broken rear spring!!! (From that damn drive threw pot hole )

And AGAIN he had a spring also in stock, so changed that as well .

How many mechanics will see lose wires and loom them and screw them to under carriage , just to prevent any pinching issue....,Roy!


I also had (my bad) suspension strapping holding my main tank,...well again , lol he brings out a proper hummer strap, so he removed my shotty sub par, mick y mouse, lazy Susan workmanship and put in the new piece,

I was extremely happy with the work/help and a great price,...


I hate when stuff breaks but he made the stress easier, lol I went insane when I saw my rear spring, heheh

Pix soon, I have some

Normally it's nice and black under there, but the salt seems to kick in the rust big time,,,,,

I'll have to make a new apt shortly for the newer style spindle nuts, and flush out the hubs (I'm sure the oil in there was around with the caveman times)

Also I have to get a half shaft boot rip fixed, lol never ends

More pictures this weekend.

I'm planing to get my half shaft

Boots that are all but peeled banana skins replace,hehe

It would be nice to see a dry underneath this summer.

But should be a fun day...

Then when it warms up I can spray paint the rust to look like steel,hehe
