just give it one good hit with a big hammer, hit it with the nut on loose so you dont screw up the thread if you miss

Those pickle forks/chisels are a JOKE. I use an actual ball jonit remover. It wedges itself on the bototm of the ball joint threads/nut, while other legs go on the boot like any other, but instead of ramming it in and forcing it out with teh angled forks, you turn a bolt on the end which actually spreads the jaws of the device open. WAY nicer on boots. Takes 30 seconds with no effort required other then a ratchet.


Something like this

anything that pinches the boot that much is bad dice imo. i hope you keep alot of spare boots

If you look at the way it's made. it's rounded. it hardly pnches the boot. it forms around the boot and touches the actual joint inside the boot. from the bottom portion. The big difference is you don't have a wedge pounding squeezing the boot. This is a constant smooth pressure that leaves the boot perfect.

mod of the day... new bb, cranks, chainring, bashguard, chainguide, fork oil, and rear shock oil. wow i'm a happy boy :)

well...you never know! hahah...k, so it was a dumb question.. fuck off! :p hahaha

Modded myself a bumbed out knee. Doc said I shouldnt be on it for 2-3 weeks... but I gotta fucking work.

you seriously suck at everything you do, eh?

Modded 18K drag suspension into the rear of the teg. Woo is it harsh hehe :D Waiting for the front coilvoers still.

I fucked it over a few years back in a dirtbiking accident and it hasnt been the same since. Its progresivly been getting worse. Something about damaged cartlage and the muscle on the back of the leg isnt working properly causing the muscle to just "stop working" when I've been standing too long. Not the greatest for long days at work...

were you on a dirtbike with a loose front tire? maybe you were trying to wheelie while you were drunk? it just seems like you are dumb and this is why bad things happen to you.

18K as in you spent eighteen thousand dollars on suspension?

18k and in spring rate

haha w00t...thanks man :D

Modded a C-Pillar bar in and a Skunk 2 shift knob, with out a doubt it is my favorite noob LOL hahaha


Mod of the day, decided my car is a black hole for money and I refuse to sink more money into it! woo hoo 6 grand in ten yrs could be a lot more then it will be in a car, ahhh i am getting bored with cars!

sanded/primered/painted all the surface rust before the Kamloops winters wreack havoc on it, not 100% perfect match, but it's a lot better than exposed rust :)

Also finally debadged the trunk...always wanted to do it with my old Fox, looks a million times better....pics in the random pics thread in off-topic

for 18G worth of rear suspension, it better be ballllller haha.

Modding new axle in tonight...
