Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

I put a brand new hub on the jeep yesterday, and took it for a ride around the block. Something didn't feel right so I pulled back into the driveway. Then it broke in half.

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

Did it actually break or did the inner bearing cone just come off the splined hub? That happens if you abuse them too much pulling them with no axle nut in place... in fact I've had exactly that happen to me.
 
Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

I never once hit it with a hammer and there was an axle shaft installed
Damn, there goes that theory. Must have been a POS unit bearing, I've never had one that shitty.
 
Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

how does a hub come apart if the axle nut is tightened down?

What time you heading up this weekend? Friday night?

I don't know, whenever Dave heads up, so yeah Friday night I guess?

I just went to Walmart to get oil/filter and changed them in the Jeep. And then went into my shop only to find a jug of new oil and a filter sitting on the shelf.
