  1. It didn't happen,,, we all know it,,, no pics
  2. Now I understand why he was saying it was too hot between his legs.
  3. Rear wheel, as well as front wheel, have a bearing at either end with a collar in-between. The only way I know is to destroy the bearings on the way out. The inner collar (bushing) has a positioning collar around it at the one end and the other end is loose so to speak so you can move it over. To move it over to one side might be a bit of an hassle because of the grease and dirt that might or might not be hidden around it. Take a long screwdriver and from the opposite end try to move the collar over a bit to expose the center race of the bearing. If that works, well enough, if it doesn't try the other way. Once you can see the inner race from the opposite end you can now use a punch to drive that bearing to kingdom come. Once the inner race is destroyed the inner collar (bushing) will come out and the rest is elementary. There are also seals and keeper rings in there, look for them and you'll see them.
  4. YOU DID IT,,,, YOU DID IT,,,,, I just knew you could,,,,,, but I realize remembering isn't as easy as it used to be EH? Tuckers??? We're coming!!!
  5. JMHO, mounting lights lower does not necessarily give better lighting. The beam will soon run out of distance. Also, the light will be harder for others to identify if mounted too low. There is an optimum distance from the ground for lights to be effective, but I can't remember what that is, probably around 24-36 inches or so. If mounted too low you need to point the beam up, and that tends to blind the oncoming driver,,,, never a good idea to blind an oncoming driver as 'he' would be the one to take you out because of it.
  6. Let's hope this thread stay on top of things. Good thoughts to be sure, but it will depend on the membership on how this turns out.
  7. I know where there is a Saab for not too much money. It's even got some age on it so it's well trained. It's only been on the hook once, seen new sneekers a couple of times, has no use for gas stations, but does need to visit them once in a while, is not field trained, and the speedo works,,, what more do you want?
  8. Looking good Gary, bet Mary is happy having you out from under her feet for a while. Looking forward to the next stage, keep posting the progress.
  9. Hey, I got an idea,,,, you could come out to a M&G and then we could all take a paint brush and paint it what ever color we wanted,,,, that would turn out different!!!!
  10. OHHHH Puc,, he's threatening you with those pictures,,, best get the wood pile a little closer.
  11. Should have made it cognac,,, wouldn't have cost any more and you could always find it.
  12. hey Buffalo??,,,,, need some place to store that stuff????
  13. Just noticed that SweetNothin' has a birthday today,,,, another one, that follows directly on the one she had a year ago,,, bet you are a little older now eh? Get that Squidley out of bed and have him look after you for the day little one, and when the day is all over let him take you out for supper,,,, you deserve it!!!
  14. Massage works for me, but it needs to be more than just a nice rubbing,,,, but then I don't have REAL shoulder pain like some.
  15. Just you guys stay south of the line and don't cross the crek,,, or we'll have to chase you down. Go ahead and feel all surrounding down there, up here we live in the Land of the brave and the free. We brave the weather, and have it all for free,,,, we don't even need a snow machine in the next province over. Nobody feels sorry for us, we get to do it all on our own,, or we just leave it for a better day. We ARE the CANUCKS!!
  16. Do not leave the shim out as you rotate the cam. Bad idea!!!! Measure the shim, take it out to read it, put it back in right away!!!!!
  17. Good to hear that those two are OK,,, that means you'll be able to stay at home for lunch still. Hope you can fix the auto alright.
  18. Don't hold you're breath Bubba,,,,, you could end up lying down in a horizontal position.
  19. Don't tell Tom that,,, he'd jump in!!
  20. All the words were missing letters,,,, how do you expect me to get it right???
  21. Told you,,, them Wisconsin boys ain't no dummys,,,,, seen you coming from miles away and days before. That there machine is well puts together and no jimeming around from some old Michigan lad is going to shut it down,,,,, you probably set it up in high gear instead,, so you best be getting one of those newfangled snow-blowers that are made in Milwaukee. Way to go Fool,,, you done it again, with winter employment to boot.
  22. We had one of those,,, until Marca went out and spent the inheritance on a Vitamix,,, now one of our kids has their share already..... hope the Vitamix lasts as long.
  23. You continue on our prayer list bro. I was thinking some Plast-i-fix might be the ticket,,, though it's not cheap,, but for you I could spare a little. To do a good job though, we'd have to set you on your head, like upside down, until it sets proper,,,,, maybe not the answer after all. Best go with the Doc, he may have a better idea,,,, meantime: prayers forwarded for healing.
  24. Pull the TCI, open it and show us what you find.
  25. Had those lights on my 85,, kind of neat actually, I liked them,,, liked them enough that I would clean them out 2x per season just to keep them working. Couldn't keep the dirt and water out of them no how. Now if I didn't ride in any rain,,, no problem. I would look for something different that looks good,,,, got to be something.
