Pete,
You're lucky you weren't at speed with the trailer, I had that happen the day I picked up the old 28zx from abay. Made it all the way to Cicero before the wheel showed up in the rearview chasing me at about 65mph. I ended up with a new axle...... |

I knew I could count you to f'up and keep me company. They say you're judged by the company you keep. :D |

Dave Being done right now, my guy is on it. Al's out chasing down parts. He has all four apart and we are going to put new bearings and seals in the other three. The bad one needs a new brake drum, which Bill has in stock if Al can't find it locally, as well as the bearings, seals and brakes. He played with the spindle for a while this am and feels it will be ok. Good thing cause it's welded to the axle and if shot it means a whole new one. Looks like it will work out, odd thing is that the trailer was going to him after I got in the water for a complete going over, was waiting just to make it easier to work on for him with the boat off the f'n thing. Oh well, chit happens, and I always end up on the wrong side of the fan.:hitfan: Prop testing is on hold for a bit, there's little hope in my mind for the Maxes, maybe I can keep the others for a while longer and spin them. Now it is looking like lab Bravos or some trick Herings. |

Sitting on the side of the road with an 11,000 lb dead horse is a PIA. Lucky it was less than a mile back to the garage. |

Same here, chained the biotch up, after taking the wheel off and having the brake drum hub comdo fall off on the blacktop, and tooled down the shoulder at 5 mph and backed her in the G-rage. Parts are on their way, the axle is a-ok, so things are looking up. Talked to Brett a BBlades at length this afternoon and the 5 blades may be back in play despite their chit performance on saturday. Need to spin the others, but we are closing in on a program here. |
