And it's not up any more.

I am on island. I have email the guy/gal requesting pic and or location to take a look. No response yet.

Passenger Marker lights I noticed that someone inquired about this, but was wondering if the passenger side marker lights are still available? If so, I'll take them. $50? plus shipping to 92115. Thanks, Matt

Found this on craigslist (San Diego) this morning. It's not me and I don't know the guy... cummins diesel

Not mine and don't know the guy, but it sounds cool. 1966 Land Cruiser Pick-Up Flat Bed

I need the driver side fender for a 60 series. If you have one you would like to sell or just want it gone or know where a parts yard in SoCal is that has a cruiser...I'm open to all options. I'm in San Diego. I would prefer to avoid paying shipping on something so big. So someone local would...

How does the driver's side front quarter look? Mine is smashed...I'm in Seattle so I could pull it (can't be that hard) and pick it up. Thanks!

I don't know where you're at in the PNW, but over in Ballard/Fremont on Leary near the Fred Meyer, there another rig that looks just like this parked at a shop all the time.

Today was the day I was going to finish the knuckle rebuild with the passenger side. And apart from jacking half the threads on my last wheel stud while installing it, everything was going fine. This side was the worse off of the two. At this point I'm thinking this can't be a good sign. And...

ducks- It was just a big press in the shop. Rotate the handle, the press goes down. As to the grease question: it is Penzoil Premium Wheel Bearing Grease 707L Red Grease. By the number of people who immediately noticed my noob mistake, I'm sure it's not the right stuff, but I think I'll leave...

The dvd is from a member (elmariachi I think). It shows the complete rebuild of a knuckle on an 80 I think. It has the narration explaining everything too. Great tool. I read a couple of threads on here arguing about OEM studs vs. NAPA studs. I went with NAPA. They had two different lengths of...

I hadn't slid the birf all the way in yet, so it just looks like it's packed. Once I popped it all the way in, it was only about 1/2 full. Wrong grease?!? Crap. Should I go back in and clean all this stuff out and put something else in there?

Almost done. New rotor. New studs. Here you can see some dents left from some previous work from a previous owner. Nothing major. Overall, the biggest PITA was seating the new studs. A BFH didn't really do the job. An impact wrench didn't do it. Finally had to press them all in. All in all...

Finally some pics. I didn't take too many since this repair has been well documented. Just some starting point shots and some finished shots with a couple in between. Just starting... old gooyness inside new gooyness inside
