Will a 6 ton press work for the press work or does it have to be the 12 ton you have? Thanks

It will not work. It is too small for everything to fit into the press area for it to allow the work to be performed. Sorry to say, the HF 20 ton press is a necessity for this job 👍

Yeah just start pressing the hub out before you take the c clip out…I wonder why the bearing was pressed against the snap ring. Soak snap ring in PB blaster let it soak scrape any rust out then REMOVE the snap ring first with long needle nose, your little snap ring pliers aren’t gonna get it out. Now press the hub and bearings out. Why make a how to video if you don’t know how to?

I can confirm now anyone do you watching this video that has SPC upper control arms on their vehicle do not do what he did in this video. By removing that top 32 mm not you’re going to allow the plates underneath the control arm to move therefore you would have to get a realignment. The proper way to remove, this from the truck is remove the cotter pin and castle nut underneath on the bottom of the upper ball joint where it goes through the top of the steering knuckle. Then use a ball joint press to press it up through the knuckle. Removing that 32 mm nut is going to cause the plates to move which determine your camper and caster you’re going to have to take your vehicle in to get an alignment if you do it that way
@WeekendWrenchTurner
@WeekendWrenchTurner 3 ай бұрын
This is true and thank you for adding this comment. I do this because I have lifetime alignments for my truck through Firestone so I always get an alignment afterwards. Should probably do that regardless of whether you move these plates, though that is just my opinion.

Why did you remove the 32 mm nut on top of the SPC upper control arms? That allow the plates underneath to move. Therefore, when you put it back on having your alignment off? In speaking with SPC they are advising to remove The castle nut underneath where it goes through the top of the steering knuckle not that 32 mm to avoid your alignment being off when you put it back on the truck

I mean, I don't have it new and wonder if that was the source of the annoying sound at start up....would it be ok not to place it at all? I could always reuse the old one anyhow... Cheers!

@@WeekendWrenchTurner PETG is a fantastic material for that, there are better materials but they are also way more money and way harder to print, they also release more toxins and so on. When printing a structural part like this make sure the layer orientation is according to the force flow within the part and use wider extrusion widths, so for instance I am using 0.8mm line width with a 0.4mm nozzle. This increases strength through better layer adhesion further. Also increase outer most perimeter instead of infill, the most outer layer is the most load bearing as well, thus hollow round bars etc. exists they are almost as strong as a filled bar but 90% less heavy and expensive. You are most welcome. I intend to use my vise to create small beads perpendicular to the bend lines to stiffen the corner further. This is very useful to increase strength for less weight and less money. I would also try to roll my own hinges, here I am not sure how the 3D print would hold up, maybe with lots of lubrication the print will hold up. Hinges can be expensive and honestly it would be just cool to make my own just for the fun on it. Maybe you can make a video for the hinge rolling or corner beads or some cool stamps and cutouts. You can also print more complex tool designs with moving brake parts for U channels and all sorts of cool stuff. I hope you try some of it out. If the 3D printed part fails there is still the possibility to make a zinc alloy metal cast, zinc melts at about 420°C and I can easily melt and cast that stuff at home on my camping bbq torch xD
