mikie Posted April 13, 2006 Report Share Posted April 13, 2006 Had to use a sledge hammer to get out my bolts...all rusted up.For some reason I'm hearing lot's of road noise at low speeds (tires)???(I did not balance them nor did I check to install the good tires up in front and the 2 worst in the rear) I just slapped them on to see.I have a little more of a gap but it's not that bad, on the plus side for some odd reason ride quality seems better...LOL. Honestly it does! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikie Posted April 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2006 omg only one pic?!?! teaser!!! i want more pics!sorry i only took one pic. and stupid photobucket reduces the pic down to 513kb, it's originaly 1.43mb. More will come soon, I'm not even sure if I'm going to leave them on yet, gotta get the 2 other hub centric things and need to fix up my rear rotors and calipers and torque the bolts to the right measure.But this looks kinda bad no? It's bent... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boostjunkie Posted April 13, 2006 Report Share Posted April 13, 2006 But this looks kinda bad no? It's bent...Yep it is bent... obviouslyBut worries me more is that you have a bolt going into the axle... usally there is a nut on the axle.Maybe I am seeing things(drunk once again) but something doesn't look right, that is the front(i am guessing by the pads) correct?
