so, i did the front wheel bearings today.. i was getting a horrible shutter/wheel hop when i would attempt to go from a stop.. ever since i got the car. i really thought the main issue was the control arms as they were EFFED.. that helped a bit..
but the main issue was the bearings.. they were horribly gone.. i don't have a press yet, so i used a hammer and direct blows for the procedure.. to get the hub off, it too NO effort.. my wheels might have fallen off if i got a good race or hard start at some point.. scary!.. anyways.. replaced the bearings, all is well. no stutter, no squeeky noise anymore. only good stuff..this makes me INCREDIBLY happy.
so, what's left??
Front and rear brakes
outer tie rods.
paint and fix the dents/keyed marks.
then, for sale for sale.!!
