Brunet-Hemi Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 New pads and rotor on the front passenger. Was hoping they would last until I left for deployment. But as you can see that wasn't going to happen. The caliper needs to be changed too but that will last till I get back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SQRLPWR Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 Looks like you cherished those pads a little too much lolWhen is your deployment ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brunet-Hemi Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 I'll be gone 2 Nov - 9 Dec. Then back alongside until we leave 28 Dec. For 6-8 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sar4x4 Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 On Saturday I got the door handles fixed properly on both front doors (Suburban). Today I got the door handles on both rear doors reinstalled fully. Then I replaced the broken glass in the RF door and installed the new window felts on three doors, the fourth was done before M.U.D. Then I vacuumed her out. Tree leaves, twigs and broken glass all cleaned up. The door panels are not reinstalled yet though, I want to clean and paint them first. Aldo the final window felts reside on the door panels so at the moment I shouldn't slam the doors when the windows are down.....Also checked and topped up all fluids. She's almost ready for a run!

SQRLPWR Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 Did the door dent u picked up on the MUD Run pop out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sar4x4 Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 The majority of the dent popped right out, but there is still a little dent and a crease. Maybe I should paint trail names and dates on the dents....Proud scars! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerram Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 My sharpie would run out on each run before I finished labeling all the dents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SQRLPWR Posted October 31, 2015 Report Share Posted October 31, 2015 Had to swap out my 4x Yoko's to my old Territories for inspection due to them getting low on the front, and some pretty gnarly rips and tears from the previous owner - the X looks very weird on smaller tires LOL Inspected and re-sealed up the snorkel/airbox fitting Drilled out the snapped bolt from the distributor housing - need to go to PA to get a new bolt (any excuse LOL) Started banging in 5 wheel studs on the Bronco axle, but failed as I wasn't able to hammer them in fully (wrist pain, getting old SUCKS!). I'll need a press. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sar4x4 Posted October 31, 2015 Report Share Posted October 31, 2015 Wheel studs, several times I've taken them to a shop to have them use a press, and then have them tell me they will just beat them in.So I used the ball peen hammer and brass punch and did it myself without any issues. I suspect others and Google might say the same. I hope yourshave the right diameter at the spline/knurl? I'd love to know other's experience.
