Knuckle Therapy 2021

[Mighty690]

My son and I did the Full Monty knuckle rebuild on his 80. Two days. (Well, still need to put the calipers and wheels on.) Mud research was invaluable as was the full Koyo kit from Cruiser Bros. New wheel bearings (races too of course) and we did the Tools torque figures. We actually did: hand tight socket and turn, then 40lb/ft and turn, and then relax and turn, and then 50lb/ft and turn, and then relax and turn followed by a final 30 lb/ft and set the tabs. Feels real good.
Yeah, those are new OEM rotors.

You don't have enough grease smeared on everything to confirm you actually worked on it.........

In the middle of this too, but i took 0 photos because my gloves were covered in grease and road grime.

I know! Retrospective is that a real parts washer would be really nice!
