hmmmmmm...would this have any affect on me having sludge in the breather that in my intake tube?...Ive cleaned it out twice now and it still shows up lol...

Not over heating...and not losing antifreeze

 

TUESDAY!! Wheel bearings are getting replaced...for 664 dollars! Im excited...ill be able to take long distance trips again! and focus on my photography again!!

 

holy fiddle sticks 664 dollars. Id run away....now

 

to all of you who got sprayed in the face with gas... you know your supposed to depressurize the fuel system, believe me I know too, i did a fuel pump on a friends car and only depressurized the line to the engine and not the return line. when i took the return line off the pump, i was sprayed in the face. talk about burning eyes and a huge cleanup in the car. you can do this by pulling the fuel pump fuse/relay, remove the filler cap. turn motor over for a few seconds.. or if theres a nipple on the fuel rail that accepts a fuel gauge line you can put that on and have it pour into a bucket.

and to the one who ask about plug gap. i gapped them to .032, because bought from the store they were .04 and i think i made him buy the nkg's?

 

664 is all four including parts and done in a day That sounds good to me considering what the dealer would cost lol

 

parts are about 60-80 and labor done yourself can be done in 1 day plus the 50-100 it would cost for you to take them to a shop and have them pressed out and press the new ones in then return home and finish. You realize you can buy both bearings and a 20 ton press for about $400.

 

you still need to get an alignment afterwards... he bought the bearings. and a shop would charge 50-100 each side to press old one out and put new one in if he just took the spindle there.

theres no point in buying a press for one job.

 

forgot about the alignment, but youd use a press for more than one job easily. Its a pretty good tool to have around. Even if you added the alignment from a cheaper shop, still way under 600. I think he can find better is all. Theres a shop up here does wheel bearings 100 a side, any make model, whatever. 664 is just a rip off, wouldn't you like to know if your money is being spent in the wrong way.

 

I gotta disagree here. I think a press is one of those tools that people don't think they need until they have one. Just like triple square bits, security fastener bits, a nice jack, impact gun, etc... Buying it the first time seems like a waste of money, but every good tool will pay for itself if you work on cars enough.

 

Yea maybe it was high...but I have no real place to work on a car..plus its cold out...plus I work three jobs. And finding some place to put that press till the next time would be a pain in the ***....Im already trying to get rid of my storage i pay out the *** for now lol..Maybe if I had a better place and personal storage I would buy it. So both parties I believe are correct here....its just one of those damn I gotta pay more now cause I live here lol...supply and demand HAHA....

I am however doing the filter myself with Sean...Ill save on that lol..

Got the car back this morning....runs great....I even have a new radio!!! WAHHOO
