Wish I could go to mustang week.The thought of having to jack up y car, pull the inner fender and lay in my back to fuck with fuses didn't seem to be very appealing to me. So it went in the back seat lol thanks is definitely been a metric shit ton more work than I would of every imagined Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it went in the back seat lol thanks is definitely been a metric shit ton more work than I would of every imaginedI could not agree more and with my history as a tech anytime there is an electrical problem I check all the fuses first which is why I made mine with easy access. I don't think that I remember ever changing a fuse there but as soon as I hide the fuse box it would blow one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackmage Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 Nothing better than fresh teal!@Det_Riot any idea how they got the edges of the tape to match up with the lines of the edges of the lens? Did they lay out the tape and then use a knife on the corners? Just curious if you saw them do it or not! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Det_Riot Posted July 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2014 No, today's theme: team z's fab work is hackSee below:Basically. Because I wanted to run larger wheel bearings (timken set20). You gotta get the housing end on to accept the new bearing. (Strange H1138) well I had TeamZ do the Fab work. To keep the stock axle length, they decided to lazy it and weld the new housing end to the taper off the axle and leave ask that bullshit hanging out in the middle. Because of that, there was no way the locking sleeve for the wheel bearing was going to clear past it meaning my axles wouldn't go in fat enough. Fast forward to yesterday, get my axle assembled by a guy I got hooked up with from a racing buddy and he tells me all of this. Well had to go buy anotherset if $60 wheel bearings, just encase they can't be pressed off and saved, so the locking sleeve can be turned down on the lathe by @1997cobra. Jesus Christ what a nightmare. If you want something done right, do it yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackmage Posted July 9, 2014 Report Share Posted July 9, 2014 im with dan on this one, obviously you couldn't sit around and wait for them to fix the problem and needed it done asap, but some emails/calls to them is in order i think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1997cobra Posted July 9, 2014 Report Share Posted July 9, 2014 I will also note, that team z's "straightened" the axle previously when stock bearings were going to be used, and they welded the tubes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zach Posted July 9, 2014 Report Share Posted July 9, 2014 Got to hate it when you have everything planned out, and someone has to go and screw things up by not doing it right. And it ruins all your plans, they defiantly should be made to make that right.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is just plain half assed garbage."Its all straight, we put it in the jig its straight" and me being naive didn't think about the retainer collar interfering. At that point I just wanted my axle back. I gotta call them today and see what they'll do. It seems like the "proper" way to do it would be to put new axle tubes on it that are the proper OD and don't taper down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
