06.08.26 Things were going so smooth...

 

     After I broke my hump getting the old wheel hub off it was time to open the box from. A1 Auto and get to installing a new one. I couldn't wait to wrap this whole thing up in less than two hours. When I looked at it it looked different. What? So then I went back to the computer and saw what I did. I've always had four wheel drive trucks. But moving to the Lowcountry I thought I could get away with 2WD. well, the hub is different. I was disappointed in myself and now have to wait for the correct part to come. I vent had to pay for expedited shipping. Hopefully it comes before Wednesday so I can be ready for the Vineyard trip on Thursday. I leaving TPH early and heading right up to catch a 845 PM ferry.


     Ive done this before on the Silverado so it should be easy peasy, but there's always something that go sideways. I'll do the one side now and maybe the other when I get back. This trucks a keeper so I'll keep up on the maintenance and replacement of things before they really go bad. My ABS light has been on and off so hopefully a new sensor on the hub will be the fix. 


     If I don't get the Shrimpers Shack I don't know how my neighbors in Sun City will like it when I'm banging the wheel to get it to pop off. And then oil changes? Don't guys do them in 55 and over places?
