You know I cant draw..... my stick figures dont even look right. :lol: The rotor does have the two threaded holes. But I would caution using them. Depending on how corroded the rotor is to the hub you can damage the rotor trying to 'drill' it off. I've heard stories of guys using bolts that...

Thanks guys, I hope it gets put to good use. Sorry again about the pictures. I did have them for each step of the process, but my camera got soaked in the rain storm when I was leaving. :(

I'm now accepting donations...... :lol:

:lol: No, I broke two 21mm sockets doing this. Thats why I said have 3 around. :lol:

One more note, this procedure will work on any GM 8-lug vehicle. From the Express van to the Avalanche. It can also be used as a guide for you 6-lug guys, but the exact steps will be different.

Alright boyos, here it is; http://www.truckmodcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?p=145635#post145635

:halo: Yes Jeff, I did.

Count me in too!

Alright guys, the bearing is in and done. BUT.... we have a small problem..... I dont have any pictures..... turns out water proof and water will kill this camera mean the same thing. BUT I do have the notes I took while doing it so I will do a write up.

:withstupid: Every RC/SB I have ever seen is a custom job. Never once seen a factory one and I've never been able to find a build code or option from GM for it.

Ok, I will play, here is mine.

Well that truck is now officially the easiest truck EVER to do an oil change on. :lol:

In the next week or two (when I get a free day) i'm going to be replacing the left front wheel bearing and hub assembly in my Silverado. I know most people on here have 1/2 ton trucks, but if anyone is interested I can put together a 'How-To' for the HD guys. It wont be the same exact procedure...

That is a great looking truck.... with a great engine.... I just wish it was made in America.

Thanks man, I appeciate it. I will as well.

Album is now created.

I am actually in the process of putting pictures together for an album. I had one on here previous but had some issues so it got deleted.

Thats cool. I live on 138 (@ easton crossing town houses) pretty much smack dab right between the 106 and 123 intersections. I actually go to that Target every once in a while. I dont go to Bridgewater, but I am going to Massasoit's Canton campus for Diesel tech. Maybe I will see you around some...

Nice F-150, the exhaust and tonneau cover really set it off. :cheers: For a fellow MA member!

Good looking truck Clancy, good luck with it. Hopefully this will mean the end to hard cold weather starts! :lol:

From my own research, K&N seems to fit my needs best. High flow rate, lowest micron rating, high burst PSI, and larger capacity. Plus being able to use a socket on the end of the filter is just so convienent in tight spots. I know oil color is a marginal indicator of the oils condition but they...

Every person I know running 2 stroke (all in diesel engines) runs 1 oz of 2 stroke to 1 gallon of fuel. 1:128 ratio. That seems to be the golden area for keeping the IP and injectors happy. Any more and you get smoke, less and its of no benefit.

Check the 8th digit of Vin. If it is a One (1) it is an LB7 If it is a Two (2) it is an LLY
