Well, one of the clamps came off the zippered boot.....
So need to do the following.
Install gasket on fuel pump.
Tighten fuel line hose
Check the gear oil on every thing
Need a heater motor
Need a gasket on the exhaust stack.
Need to get air wipers working
Oh and install my new tires
All this...
Got the air lines run, removed the windows and painted them.
The masking tape I used left a glue film on the front window because I left it on for a week. Oh well live and learn.
What a nice day in GA!!!! Weather is perfect out side.
Ok, going to try and finish some loose ends.
Get the masking tape off the windshield, reinstall a airwiper motor, replace the air lines to the wipers, lock the door seal down, make a gasket for the fuel pump, and paint the fuel pump.
If I have time going to try and prep the bed for paint.
Got it adjusted and did the passenger side of the truck. Had my brother in law come over an supervise. He works at the Honda dealer and knows a lot of tricks. I had to spin the drum around a couple times and got it to center the pads.
Adjusting the brakes though is a work out. It's taking off...
Well, some thing not right with the pad. I am going to pull the hub off again and have a look see.
Side note got the front flap fixed on my cargo cover.
Well spent the last 2 hours trying to adjust the brake no luck. I got the bottom two set to .010, top left .020, and the top left gap is way out only like .003 . I am doing something wrong any idea's?
Going to have to call the brother in law.
Hub went on easy though
Round two, brakes are out of wack. They were so tight i could not get the hub off. I was hoping not to have to adjust them. Guess I am going deeper down the rabbit hole.
Found some epdm cord. Decided to go with that. Every is back together now.
Need a couple of new ndt tires though. If I can't find them guess I will flip the hubs so I can make due.
Got the gasket material from Napa (thanks Bob). Going to do that fix, touch paint, and then wiper hose. After...
Got everything prepared for reinstall. Packed the bearings, pressure washed everything, and cleaned the flanges.
If any has question or needs photos let me know. Seem like the axle seal repair is coming up often.
Ok, moving ahead
Really great news the rear hub I pulled has new pads, hardware, seals, and fresh grease. I am going to reassemble and reuse seals.
Take a look the new star seals are NOT as good as the militaries.
Thanks guy , rain stopped I spend the last three hours reinstalling every thing.
Had to reinstall the spring seat back twice because I left a plate off the back. Then I had to replace the spring that keeps the seat from moving back and forth. Defroster and dampener control had to be fixed so...
