well, lets see here maybe being lazy has paid off for once? While standing in the baking sun, getting chewed on by bugs, I looked at all of the things I would have to move to pull and bench test the alternator. I decided then to just test the fusible link, and then let the battery sit on a...

ok cool, so terrain tamers were installed on both sides drove the LC a little bit, and then it sat for a little bit, went to jump it and then the alternator (I am pretty sure) fried itself, will check the fusible link, but currently the LC will only stay running if there is a jumpbox attached to it

roughly where about would the consolidated shipping pick up be?

ordered the terrain tamers a few days ago, ordered from their north American website, and the order was fulfilled from Australia, so TBD when the parts get here, tracking site still says "pending"

also rounded a bolt off in one of these :angelic:, thankfully not NLA (nor too expensive to need to try and drill out the broken bolt) 47629-60010 also need to order: 90249-08075 *1 90213-06013 *4 90468-14004 * 4 90249-08075 *2 47625-60022 * 1 47634-60010 * 1 2x WBK3HP from terrain tamer...

I ended up pulling off the brake shield today to measure for a speedi-sleeve, and the measurement of the spindle I came up with was 62mm diameter, and 33mm long. Looking on the SKF website, they only have 62mm dia x 15mm long, going to do some more digging around to see if I can find a longer...

is grand overland district being rented this year? if so, what days?

would anyone happen to have a set of 80 series full float (unlocked) axles for sale?

@orangefj45 any more long term feedback? I am probably in the market for some of these seals

yeah, these are the ones where the seals rotate around themselves https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/terrain-tamer-heavy-duty-hub-seals-anyone-use-them-yet.1296452/page-2 I will probably install those just this side for now, and then see if I can find a set of axles to stash in the crawlspace

hokay so made some further progress, and made it to where the inner hub seal sits There is a groove that I can feel with my fingernail, and it gets deeper the further out from the vehicle one goes. Based on what seems like the slow build up of crapola inside of the brake shield, this seems to...

I finally got around to pulling the axle out / ordering parts. The axle does not have any grooves or wear marks where the seal rides out by the flange, going to pull the hub housing off and take a look at what else is going on. I was expecting to find a nasty groove in the axle where the seal...

lets see here for reasons I will be soon finding out, one of the rear axle seals that I have resealed previously has failed, curious to see what that is while I am in there, will be redoing the rear brakes, and actually trying to bleed the system better this time other than that, not much new...

I might have found a co-worker, will keep you posted :D rods are 6-12" long, and 1/2" in diameter

Anyone know someone in the 919 that has a lathe and would center drill some rods for me?
