Today I built the rear hubs with my new billet axles. Lovely fit, just the right feel on the press when fitting the bearings. Right side may have been about a half of one poofteenth tighter, but both felt about right. These were Bob's axles from Proformance.
Hubs are now ready to fit to the lower arms, but still waiting on the exhaust as I'd like to fit this first and get it out of the way.
Whilst I'm waiting I thought I'd change that horrible rubber bush that the shifter linkage passes through. The one on the left rail under the headers. Bugger of a spot to get to!
I'm wondering if anyone has replaced this that could explain any tricks to getting the linkage off, gaining access to the two big nuts and then re-asembling without having to fully setup the shifter linkages again?
Any tricks to make this job a little easier?
