What Did You Do To Your Car Today?

[k31th]

well, whatever worked I'm the same... got plenty of little niggles to fix on my car but can't be bothered haha

Sunny weather helps 

[k31th]

absolutely

Front hubs and wheel bearings arrived for the territory today. I probably should have ordered any other worn out sh*t to replace while I'm under there but meh. Haha I'll have a look today and see what else is stuffed.

[Puffwagon]

Looks under car, everything needs replacing 😐

 

[k31th]

oh... red dust... and a slightly misshaped hole  no big deal

Local place can't get ball joints in today, Repco reckon they don't stock them and SC can't get them today. What a farkup. Now I've gotta register another car so I can get the kids to school next week while I wait for eBay parts... And no I ain't putting the old ones back in temporarily.

If it's any consolation - a couple of turns on the puller and my balancer came apart.

Removed the radiator and tried to get a 3 jaw puller onto the remnants of the arms but no luck.

I might have to grind down my puller a bit so I can get onto the ridge at the back.

Also meant I had to pull the radiator which was harder than I expected. It looks average so I think I'll order a new one rather than doing the job twice.

Was a fair bit of oil when I removed the crank bolt and timing cover seals look ok so hopefully just the crank seal causing my leak.

Edit: haha should say the bolt wasn't on there when I tried to remove it! Need something for the three jaw to hit so removed the washer and put the bolt back

It needs a bit of heat to help it

Yeah nah that's no consolation lol. I registered my 93 Honda Integra, gave it a wash, topped it up with fuel so I'm ready to go. Aircon is ice cold, has music and economy is in the 7s per hundred.

 

All the other sh*t is ordered so will fix the territory next week 

 

Worse case for your yours is to smash the rest of the balancer, pull the timing cover off and cut the balancer off. A long cut and a hit with a chisel should crack it in half. Try not to let it fall into the sump
