That sand is gonna chew up your bumper bearings! Any idea how much weight the sand was able to add, or better yet how the bumper offset the tongue weight? Not a clue.. The bag weights about 50 lbs. and we used most of it.. So it's not a whole lot of weight.. but anything should help.. We're ok with the bumper bearings.. we installed a bumper bearing eliminator kit... Where can I buy this kit? Mine are squeaking!  |

Yah I was hoping to be done with getting those axles out from under the frame sooner than I did so I didn't make it either But Parker I want to know why it took two days to replace gears Mainly cause we didn't start till 6 pm on Friday night and by the time we got the rusty mud infested bolts out to get to everything we were wore out. Then someone starts throwing parts all over the shop in no particular order. So finally we said screw it. Got back mid day on Saturday after kids soccer games and got a ton done. But then ran into the dreaded "impact wrench doesn't have enough butt". So 5 guns later got that worked out. Then I had to go to my second job so we met back up 6 hrs later. So actual work time wasn't all that bad. |
