I went to advance auto because i had to rent a 36mm socket. which was $52 but they gave me the money back when i returned it. I also tried getting a puller and they had a 4" a 5" and a 6" i think and the guy said ...... "thats not big enough for a hub" so i didnt buy it. and i was told to use an air hammer but didnt really see a good place to put the air hammer..
Also, if i were to find a puller that "fits" how exactly do you use it? Looks as simple as putting the threaded stud part on the middle of the axle and putting the arms around the base of the hub and spinning...?

That's basically it. You hook the arms onto the OD of the hub and then thread in the center until it tightens up against the end of the CV shaft. An impact helps here as well.

Well that was short lived... office girl called to say it was done, owner called 10 minutes later to say it was "done" but he's not happy with how it shifted on his test drive so he's going to keep working on adjustments and stuff. So now no truck until tomorrow. *angry*

I got my "clear euro bumper lenses" and my white LEDS to match. Also had to go to advanced and buy 2 heavy duty electronic flashers. I started taking the lower dash apart to get to the flashers and theres 4 hex bolts i think. They were so tight that i actually snapped the head off a heax screw driver. So i had to go to the store and buy another set because those were junk lol. After i got all the bolts off the flashers were really easy to swap out. So then I went out to the front and started taking the old bumper lights out. Realised they are the SAME thing. Nothing euro or clear about them. So i said screw it ill just clean the old ones up and put them back in. So i did and then i went to put the bulb in it and they sent me the wrong LED bulb with the lights. FML. It just so happened to fit in my reverse lights. So now i have LED reverse bulbs and thats it lol. Going to the store where i can physically see which bulb im getting.

Still waiting on my muffler back duals, shopping for a tent to convert to a spray booth for painting parts. All work done on the "Little Redhead" done in the street, the yard here is so tiny, a tent will most likely fill the yard... lol

Just got word my truck is done from having the trans done... so (unless round two goes like round 1 yesterday...) I'll be picking it up, dumping nearly 1200 bucks, little mud from the construction zone outside my house, then a car wash.
