Didn't you get my Pm?

35mm is an odd size, I would be tiping it's 36mm. I can lend you a socket in a pinch.

PDF attached Page 13. No mention of replacing the nut. You'll need a decent torque wrench to retorque the wheel nut. A good clean up with carbi/lectra clean and some thread lock and you'll be good.

I doubt you'll need a puller the bearing is not a press fit. Try and do it while the car is warm.

Wheel bearings done. My Chicago pneumatic 1/2 rattle gun spun them of piece of piss (its a 35mm socket). A few hits with a hammer and they both slid off. Both totally rooted, heaps of movement. New ones slid straight on after a quick clean up of the stub axle. Then 300Nm with torque wrench. I have a new one so broke it in with 100 then 200 and then 300.

Car is AU3 with 210K.

Half the fun of the whole job was buying the new torque wrench 1/2 inch 70-350Nm. But he was lonely so I bought him a baby brother 3/8 19-110Nm.

Whole job took about 20 mins with a coffee break.

Tomorrow its finish of the oil cooler and new radiator in my F6. All I do is work on cars. I like it though.

To hot today, so finished up work early. Tonight of to the casino for wifes christmas work party.

How'd u go mate? Get the G6ET? I'm on the lookout for one also.

Pics if u got it!!!

I'm getting them to sharpen up the offer for the trade in and believe that I'll have it next week.

I test drove it by myself, it's safe to say, I had a lot of fun.

I'd want to put a LSD diff in it yeah. Wonder what the going rate is supplied and fitted. 

Well the diff on my FG XR6T needed new bearings and seals this week so figured I'd get a Harrop Truetrac centre put in while they had everything apart. Supply and fitting of the TrueTrac was $2,250 at WA Diff Centre. Mine ended up costing nearly $3k as they reco'd the diff, put all new seals and bearings in and fitted up my Super Pro control blade bushes for me while they were at it.

Saw GAMA747 at a house on Doulette st, in Spearwood, which runs off my street. I don't know why I know that car? I just recognise it. Is that anyone on here? BF/BFII F6 in lightning strike with orange plates/white writing,
