Doooooon't heat bearings past 250 degrees F!!!!
If you do, cool them gently. You can do this with a fan. (Electric or manual). Then walk outside and drop them in the trash can.
I went all out on my mini-tub marking kit, professional use only.....
So, early mornings again!
Tomorrow, up on jack stands again. Dropping the rear end out to FINALLY put new parts in it!
I get to try out @Boosted92LX 's toaster bearings trick on the pinion gear, differential and c-clip eliminator bearings.
I'll order my QA1 single adjustable coilovers on Wednesday. Thanks @madmike1157 and @84Ttop for recommendations.
After dropping out the rear end and putting Doby on jack stands, I'll finish making my cut lines on the inside.
Can't do the actual cutting till after work tomorrow night, it's a little noisy to do that at 3:30am for some members of my household.
It may be next week before I put together the diff. I want to focus on the cutting and welding in the first week.
There you go Chris, your evil plans are coming to fruition! @RaggedGT
I'm so excited! If I had a big shaggy tail, I wouldn't be able to walk right now because it would be wagging so hard!
I'll post pictures as i tear into it.
6 months from now when doby has won many best of show awards and people are praising you for your gorgeous paint work and all the smoothing,wire tuck, chrome and bad ass wheel tubs tucking fat tire's . You're gonna be like "Raggedy who?"
Lol
Jerk.......
I gotta be me...
And Nick is just so stupid!
Well, you are obviously the smart Nick then.Easy there, my name is Nick as well.
I'm sorry, who were you again and why are you posting on my thread?6 months from now when doby has won many best of show awards and people are praising you for your gorgeous paint work and all the smoothing,wire tuck, chrome and bad ass wheel tubs tucking fat tire's . You're gonna be like "Raggedy who?"

Naww,....The one that thinks the Italian word for goodbye is the same one that is on the dog food bag is from Iowa.Well, you are obviously the smart Nick then.
Imagine that, two Nick's from Texas both commenting at the same time on the same thread.
The Iowa Nick is originally from Texas. See, I'm not as think as you stupid I am!Naww,....The one that thinks the Italian word for goodbye is the same one that is on the dog food bag is from Iowa.
Red neck knows no geographical boundaries.
And for the record, Nick seems to be prevalent here. You got the Iowa Nick, The Jersey Nick, The Texas Nick, and Saint Nick. (But the last guy's on every forum,.....checkin who's naughty, and who's nice.).
Anybody that used to live in a southern state, and now by choice lives in one where temps drop to 20 below, cannot claim that they lived anywhere previously.
Because by virtue of that choice they are deemed mentally incompetent, and can't be trusted to tell the truth..
Bottom line,...Nick is from Iowa. Nick always lived in Iowa.
Clearly, you've never spent a summer day in Omaha, or Minneapolis. It gets just as damn hot, and the humidity is still right there to make it sticky. (Not like Houston, or Birmingham, but it is still there) Then,...you got the "dead zone". The months between November, and April.I think when I retire, I'm going to buy a place up north... To spend summers. Then fly south for the winter.
You know me Nick, my family is from Iowa City. I'm a die hard Hawkeye fan, always have been, always will be.First of all, I am full blooded 'Murican, its F'in chow if I want it to be chow. All of yall can go back to Europe with your fancy foreign terms. Secondly, I have still spent more of my years in Texas than in Iowa so far. Only reason I am still in Iowa is because 100% of my family, and my wife's family all reside here, and I know what its like to be a kid and only see your aunts, uncles, cousins, and grand parents once a year. That, and the crime rate is low, traffic is pretty non existent even in the second biggest city in the state, and people are generally good hearted if they arent addicted to meth. It was 26 degrees on my way to work this morning, and 57 when I left and its mid April. What's not to love?
Oh and Dave, youre doing a good job, looks great, keep it up. (@madmike1157 's favorite terms of encouragement.)
