Re: Chinese trailor bearings
I would be ok with the non us parts if they had the ame quality. I just wanted to vent. I also check the bearing preload often. One thing I have noticed is that the cheep bearings wear a lot faster so the preload goes away. You can bet i packed that bearing very well, and the hub, Then my axles have a zerk fitting on the spindle that pumps grease in to the center of the two bearings. If I have time next week i will pull apart the other three and see how they loo. I will give you guys an update.
The tank in my truck is a Summit 20 gallon fuel cell. I removed the foam because I did not know how it wouldreact to Diesel fuel. I mounted it side ways so the lines come off the sump to the driver side. The sump feeds from the middle of the tank so it has plenty of fuel at any angle. If you want more pics i can get you some close ups. i had a build thread for it a yearor so ago, but i have not updated it because the project has taken a back seat to customer builds. I will hopefully get back to it soon, especialy since it is at the house.
