Thanks all for your contribution to this forum!
I just replaced the right front bearing hub in 1 hour and 45 minutes, in the dark with a 6" flourecent shop light in my driveway starting at 4:30am. I was ready for a fight with those 3 mounting flange bolts, but they came off with I'm guessing about 200 ft/lb of torque.
Spent more time trying to get those plastic wire holders that route the ABS sensor wire apart than anything else.
Wish there was a way I could share the cost savings with you all ;)

You can....become an elite member of the site and that'll help keep it up and running :)
 






You can pay it back by helping someone else. That's what this forum is all about IMO. :thumbsup: And becoming a member helps too. ;)
 






Become Elite

Glad to see you saved some cash -- now help out the site since we've helped you. :thumbsup:

Keith,

You can help by doing what the others told you and that is supporting the site by becoming an Elite member. The more users that become Elite helps Rick keep this site up and running. This site uses a lot of bandwidth to keep it going and it's expensive
 






Take $30.00 of that $430.00 you saved and become Elite.

Pennies in comparison.

I'll contribute by joining but am no where near a mechanic. I'll chirp in and share related issues and help when I can. I'm more of an electronics guy than a tuner.
I've worked around cars and truck better with a multimeter than an impact chisel.
