From the looks of that wheel bearing all 6 wheels need to come apart .
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
Amazing forces at play that it can distort and snap that half shaft. When I do things like that, I like to make yard art from the broken parts. I don't intend to quit trying to learn and having fun. I say go speed racer!That's just it.. the one on the other side looked brand new and had great looking grease. I do plan to at least take the rear 4 hubs off and have a look before I call this project done. I hope that one is the only fluke.
Seems my stupidity saves the day!
Also, how tall are you?How old are you?
Agreed. Kindergarten really WAS crucial wasn't it!?Definitely less work than swapping out a whole front axle quickly. And now you know the job's done right and is good to go. Great job - I always learn so much more when I have to clean up my own mess.
I hear you; trashing stuff can be GREAT fun:Oh that wasn't that bad. It never hopped at all doing that and I had help!
I had been planning to smash this car for a year. We put a bunch of holes in it before attempting to run it over, so that was fun at least.
Yup, That's why I keep my truck out of the deep mud. I put too many miles on it for all that shenanigans.I have found it best to inspect your bearings and brakes after EVERY foray into mud. After every haspin or Ga rally, I go through each hub. Its amazing how much mud and crap gets in there.
Even if its just to wash the mud and sand off the brake pads. Imagine how fast the pads wear with all that sand in there.
