    Wheel Bearing and new(ish) carb

    ok everyone, I got alot of pics of the work that was done, my other carb was dead, so they took the carb from my donor 84 a few months ago, and he installed that one, and also we found out that my wheel bearing was completely shot and I was very close to probably crashing... ENJOY!



    I currently have no muffler, he is welding up a tail pipe and gonna put that one back on next week...

    working on the wheel bearing mess....

    All torn apart, all that red you see is from the bearing pretty much exploding


    There we have it, I was hangin out for like 5 hrs today

    It seems you have access to some nice tools and a warm shop!

    By I need an older Accord. Too bad they all rusted out here in Quebec.

    Sweet! Now I bet the car doesn't track all over the road. I had that same wheel bearing replaced on mine at the Schwab. It was nice to have fixed.

    I think you should be worried about the other things in Sprite and Root Beer and other types of soda. It's not the caffeine that's the worst thing.
