Wheel Bearing craziness
#1
Today I took my car to a shop to get my driver side front wheel bearing replaced. When they started on my car they called me saying my CV shaft was seized in the bearing so they had to cut it to put the hub on the press and press the old bearing out. About two hours later they called saying the bearing was seized in the hub and they may damage the hub and have to get a replacement from the wreckers. I said go ahead and try your best to get it out. By the end of today I went to the shop to look at everything just to make sure they were not screwing me around. They had heated up the hub glow red and had it on the press and the press was actually buckling, the bearing or cut off end of the CV shaft would not come out. - Anyways I thought this was pretty funny and had to post it up on hereTongue , The shop is getting me a hub and CV shaft from the wreckers to finish it tomorrow. Proves Focus's are the toughest cars around. Tongue
