Thread: What did you do to your Car today?

I meant more the rocking the salt color. Whole car is coated in it. Where the wheels splash up its solid white. It's gross. Needs bath so bad but its to cold.

Same here, too cold to do anything to the car at all. I have retros, tie rods, and L76 springs to install. There's just a foot of snow on the ground and it's 10*F outside.

KaliEric doesn't understand..

Mine.....I'm pretty sure is a solid muddy brown color with white streaks of salt mixed in.

Getting ready for the weekend......







Tired of changing the SKF's so will see if Delco is any better. The warranty sure is better!

go timken or go home

^^^^^ got to agree.

So it used to be SKF or go home, now it is Timken or go home. What's the next flavour to go home with?

I like SKF, we never really have come back at work when we use them. We don't do tons of w-body cars but it's mainly GM trucks and fords that get bearings the most.

Don't forget Moog's. That is what I currently have. My brother had an SKF that went bad. He's now on Moog's with no issues. I use them as well.

I believe these are made in Korea and Timken is in China.

Timkin used to be made in Korea didn't they?

Also how are the quality of the Detroit Axle ones if anyone knows, people rage about them on facebook when people post about hubs

always been timken in my book, no flavour changes.

Lol, I have Masterpro all the way around, but they were 100% free brand new, so why not, lol. Been on there 15 months and only 1 failure...that they warrantied out, so I'm not complaining. Of course I've only put 10,000 miles on the car in 2 years, lol.

People "rage" about the Detroit Axle ones because they are cheap. Those same people aren't telling you about how many times they have changed their cheap bearings.

$159 for SKF, $123 for Delco. I got my last SKF for $129 as my parts store had their annual tradeshow.

I don't think any auto parts are made in the US anymore.

I got my Moogs for $100 because I bought online and used a discount code, then picked up in store.

Backed it out of the garage today

X2. I've never had issues with SKF but I also install them better than most people. I literally torque the three hub bolts to knuckle to spec and the same with the axle nut. I really like SKF's x-tracker design.

Timken is real good too.

ACDelco hubs are re-boxed Raybestos and the reviews are too inconsistent so I stay away from them.

Moogs are ok and they would be my third choice. Also Moog hubs are really the National Brand.

I just walked to Oreilly's to buy some wire cuz I thought the roads would be too slick, and it's only a block or 2 away. Turns out the roads are fine, and I managed to get pelted with ice falling off of trees the whole way there and back. F*ck you winter.
