Ouch! Check you bearings!!

[mjp1080]

I made a bad discovery today, believe it or not the wheel was still turning. There was so much damage it actually ground the bearings themselve down to nothing, I did not find a single one just the reamains of the carrier and race. The third pic is how much mud was inside the hub.

Wow, nice ... and why I stay out of mud.

[bigiron]

You have had a problem with that wheel for some time to get that much **** in there......I would be checking your worm and bull gears in the diff as well.....Marshal....Marshal.....Marshal:haha:

See, this is the good thing about samurais, you just check your bearings everytime you break a birf, and they never get that bad. :haha::eeek:

[mjp1080]

It looks like the other side is ok, but the parts to fix this werent cheap.
Does anyone have a lathe that could turn the spindle? I need to take about 1/8th of an inch off the end, the threads are gauled. Wonder why?

I could probably clean up the threads, If not i can turn some off the end. I would need a spindle nut as well. pm me if interested
