Glad you made it home alright! Like I said before, this will be a trip you will remember FOREVER! We just'passed in the night' as I was going thru Tulsa and OKC about the time you made it home. My internet last night was too spotty to post a reply. And be careful with that C4 when you unload...
Around here, we have LOTS of deer. And they are mostly over 200 lbs or so. They don't have the right-of-way here, but if you hit one, it will still mess up your whole day!;)

Sounds great! Most times you can figure it out as you go. Actually having the parts in your hands helps a LOT! Good luck and we will all be waiting to hear from you![thumbzup]
OK. I got out my old manual before spouting off. The new hub you have does already have the bearing race installed. That is why the bearing fits when you put it down in there. You can start a whole 'nother argument about whether you should pull this race out and replace it with your new one.
