Hey!!!!! Martini's aren't something to joke about. You're supposed to consume them in great numbers and quickly! :lol: (Dirty Vodka martini.............my drug of choice!) :lol:
Chris :D

The tension between what is good enough and what is beyond that creates the space for character to become our work.

The torque spec on most trailer bearings is 15 Inch/pounds which is about a strong finger tight. New bearings are torqued to 25 foot/pounds while rotating the hub to seat the bearings, then loosen the nut and retorque to 15 inch/pounds and install cotter pin.
