Hey Guys,

It's new video Sunday and the the battle of the bolts has begun! In this episode I remove the brakes and prep them for @eric_shea . also pull the axles, press out the hubs and bearings and get the trailing arms ready for powder coating.

Whew!

Very cool tool / setup, Rich. Wish I had that rig a few days ago. More proof that the knowledgebase here is amazing.

I think part of the reason why I had to cut the nut is because the car is just a roller. I put all my weight on a breaker bar and also tried a pipe extension. Two things happened...1) the breaker bar bent to the point that I was sure it would snap. And 2) the car actually jumped on the lift. Unfortunately the camera wasn't rolling for that, but it was pretty scary. If the car had an engine and was fully weighted, I'm pretty sure a beefier breaker bar would've done the trick. But as a roller, the forces applied were enough to move the car before the bolt.

Setting the entire trailing arm on the ground and immobilizing the hub with angle is a genius idea.
