it helps my transmission run correctly. otherwise its all over the place and runs warm.

i will get out there one day. but this summer is doubtful

 

sounds like a justification for more gadgets

****, come in the winter. as long as there isnt snow, the local BAMF trail is open year round!

 

if i was closer i would... its 2200 miles atleast round trip. i am just not in a financial position to do such.

that trip would take about 170 gallons of fuel... times that by 3.60 or even 4 bucks and its like 700 bucks!

 

^ plus screw around gas

Zack what wheel nut tool did you get?

 

I would imagine all d60 hub nut tools are the same andy.

get a buddy to split with you and its the price of a bit above average plane ticket!

 

its a 2-9/16" stamped socket

 

i just was wondering what wheel nut it was for..dumb question. time to fall asleep i think

 

its the one that holds the hub on. the front D60s are a different style nut than the rears.

 

yeah i noticed that. so its like this?

i need to get a bunch of install tools, otherwise i cant do it at home. i might be able to take the diffs to my friends work and have him help me, but id like to do it all myself

 

meh, the expensive ones you can rent for free. but the hub nuts sockets are essential cause they arent overly abundant...

 

yep something like that. i bought this one

that is very true. i cant find anyone local with this socket.

you really need a good bearing puller for the carrier bearings. the D60 and D44 the shims are behind the bearings which really sucks.

 

or you could hone the inner surface of the bearings to an snug fit that you coudl use a brass punch to kick off pretty easily...

 

BTW zach, its only 1200 miles to your town to mine. ill pitch in gas money for the trip if you come!

 

only, thats a ways in a lifted truck.. and like he said before like 2400 round trip, plus gas to offroad with


i remember once i was suppose to go to Rado..lol

 

still can! I want a ranger run to go down.

 

you dudes could fly in and drive my truck or one of the buggies, we dont care!!

 

ive heard of that before. im sure either would work

 

i takes a bit of a while though, but once its done its a lot nicer...

 

Ok... so now I'm confused. I thought a Spindle Nut Socket looked like this.

What's the one you posted for? Or is it just a different type?

 

They have both styles. More Fords have the style that has the prongs.

 

that is a front D60, the one i posted is for a rear D60

A front D44 is even different yet i believe.

 

Pretty sure this is the front 44.

I don't have one, but that seems like what would fit. I just used a screwdriver to get my spindle nuts out. Probably will have to pick one up to make sure that they are tight when I install the new ones.

 

that is not what my tool looks like but i am sure it will work. mine the prongs stick out

autozone has these tools for the 44 and front 60

 

picked up the correct rotors this time i think. lets hope.

also got some 5/8" grade 8 Ubolts. :)
