ah can not believe the FSM wants you to balance a brass drift on those round (intentionally ?) end bolts when jolting the cone washers securing the flange on.
forget hammering my thumb I'd be still going coconutnuts resetting the drift on center if I happened to even have a brass drift.
warning, threat detected, tool I dont have ... must ... catch ... drift
seems afar easier to use a wee strip of 1/4 aluminum , hammered flat on with mooch gusto.
By keeping My hand well back out of the way , protects the Stud and oh that threaded thing too .
balancing the Al strip on the adjacent stud helped square
still amazes me that hammering that stud pops out a cone washer, a couple with some reluctance, mindu.
it seems like another way to ring it free would be tap the flange plate with a socket big enough and in control so the washer isn't dinged.
didn't think ot try it in time so I don't know if it'll work.
seemed not so much in how hard to hit it but how aligned, the strap square and hammer landing head on & fast to go into a ringing resonance , could feel it when every bit of force went straight down the stub making them just popped out
its actually amazing how that all the further you have to go to pull that end of an axle shaft. the back side of the tulip in mine had popped out and the grease looked too sploogy. screw it, it looked original and 20, which is like 67 in dog years , and the other side had already been done by the DPO so there goes another $45 down on the 4player.
getting a kick outta how toy does this 4runner, just little stuf, twerky differences from other makes even other toys ive worked on, example oddly elaborate bracketry, hose.
in general this g-g-generation looks like a bowl of noodles undr the hood specially compared to next gen, which I saw one tday, looked wholly cleaner under there .
Thats wild; to have a capable road toolkit 4 the runner, requires a generic flat of drift metal and niblick of a hammer.
takes ya back to shifting with vice grips
