  1. I suppose we gotta let off on these guys just like antique cars not everybody likes the stock rims and hubcaps but then again that annoys me too. I generally appreciate the stock wheels even on antique cars but definitely not necessarily nothing wrong with chrome reverse or SS Crager‘s
  2. I could use the old red neck approach… lay down a sheet of plywood full of grease and slide the entire duel assembly off the axle with a buddy lol
  3. Yes, Paul it does still have four more to go. I’m still waiting on the last two I’ll have to dismount just two of them. … i would have liked to paint all the rims and hubs while I had them off but I had to get that very old stuff off before I had any blowout issues I have 1 axle seal leaking I will replace that while I have everything off
  4. ok,,,its just boring old spoke wheels...but nice to see some decent rubber on this thing,,,and everyone likes pictures
  5. OK, that’s just hilarious. Thanks for that.
  6. I just tried to crop the pictures myself just now to see if I could post them and it doesn’t even give me a choice to crop them. You might have the same issue. Good luck.
  7. The list just goes on this administration is working their asses off and getting absolutely no pat on the back
  8. No, that was the fastest repair. I think I’ve ever done in my life in fact back then that was way before I even owned a computer or a cell phone.
  9. Well, I didn’t do anything at all yesterday today I’m fixing on swapping some rims over before our weather turns to shit after the gym. Let’s see what happens. Supposed to be raining Wednesday Thursday, Friday after that I won’t be able to move it very much. My yard will be too sloppy.

  12. I stopped for a broke down truck northbound 99 Manteca some of you probably know where that is. This was about 30 years ago young kid just started accelerator spring broke. All I did was Ben the spring a bit . It was still hanging there and hook it back on. The kid was standing there scratching his head. Oh my God you’re a magician it took longer to tilt the nose aaaaaaaaahhhhh the good old days
